Susan Rothenberg

Yellow Spinner; and Alius (M. 34)

"Yellow Spinner; and Alius (M. 34)" comprises two distinct prints that showcase Rothenberg's gestural abstraction and dynamic mark making. The mezzotint in colors demonstrates the artist's exploration of tonal depth and rich chromatic effects on the luxurious Richard de Bas paper, while the etching and aquatint employs delicate layering of line and tone on Japanese Kitakata Chine. Together, these works on different papers and substrates exemplify Rothenberg's multifaceted approach to printmaking and her investigation of how materials and techniques shape visual expression.

Medium
One mezzotint in colors, on Richard de Bas paper, and one etching and aquatint, on Kitakata Chine collé to Moriki paper, with full margins.
