This impressive portfolio was issued to commemorate the collection of paintings and sculpture by New York artists of the 1960s, assembled by Hultén and Klüver for the Moderna Museet in Stockholm. The roster of artists included forms a who's who's of the New York art world during one of its most influential decades: Lee Bontecou, John Chamberlin, Walter De Maria, Jim Dine, Mark Di Suvero, Dan Flavin, Red Grooms, Hans Haacke, Donald Judd, Elsworth Kelly, Sol Lewitt, Roy Lichtenstein, Louise Nevelson, Kenneth Noland, Claes Oldenburg, Nam June Paik, Robert Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers, James Rosenquist, George Segal, Richard Serra, Cy Twombly, Andy Warhol, and others. All prints are signed except the Haacke and Lichtenstein, which are, however, numbered; the Noland is signed with a signature stamp.
