Lisson Gallery, London
Acquired from the above by the present owner

This work is in very good condition overall. Extremely close inspection reveals some very fine tension cracks running intermittently along all four edges of the composition. Upon further very close inspection, there are some surface irregularities with associated drip accretions, most notably to the pink and turquoise pigment, which are in keeping with the artist's working method. Unframed.

"This structure happened out of need. I didn’t make the structure and then add the color. The color made the structure." Stanley Whitney
