Condition

This work is in excellent condition overall. The sheet is hinged on the reverse to the backing board. There is a soft undulation to the sheet. The scattered, faint surface irregularities and stray media are inherent to the artist's working method. Under close inspection, there is evidence of a few finger prints, likely from the time of execution. Framed under Plexiglas.

Catalogue Note

“Rife with excitement – physical, perceptual, aesthetic, intellectual – and while full of ideas, they are also alive with color, line, texture, figure, and form. They dare you to look at them, and it is through that visual challenge that both they and you awaken” Heidi Zuckerman Jacobson, Exh. Cat., Aspen Art Museum, Mark Grotjahn, 2012, p. 7
