About the Item

Signed in pencil Edition 100 Printer: Styria Studio, Inc., NY, with their blindstamp This earlier (1966) sculpture of the same title is the inspiration of the portfolio. The sculpture is in the collection of the Albright Knox Museum. The screenprints follow the neon of the sculpture. Greek-born American sculptor Chryssa—who went by her first name professionally—died on December 23, 2013, reports Margalit Fox of the New York Times. Born in 1933 in Athens, Chryssa Vardea-Mavromichali grew up during the Nazi occupation of Greece. After studying at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, Paris, and the California School of Fine Arts, San Francisco, she began incorporating neon into her fragmentary, text-based work. Her first solo exhibition in New York was held at the Betty Parsons Gallery in 1961, which was quickly followed by shows at the Guggenheim, New York; Leo Castelli Gallery, New York; and the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis. Her work is part of collections of major museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; and the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, DC. Note: A set of Gates to Times Square is in the collection of MOMA, New York

  • Abstract Composition - Screen Print by Mario Padovan - 1971
    By Mario Padovan
    Located in Roma, IT
    Abstract Composition is an original colored serigraph realized by Mario Padovan in 1971 . Hand-signed in pencil on the lower right. Numbered in pencil on the lower left. Edition of 50. Good conditions. This artwork belongs to the artist's series of Op Art . In the late sixties and early seventies, indeed, Padovan dedicated himself to experimenting with Op Art, which he essentially interpreted as a way to break down an image. Works referring to the graphic screens, collages, and reflections for the decomposition of the image all belong to this period. Born in Trieste in 1927, Mario Padovan lives and works in Rome. An eclectic artist, during his long career he has gained significant experience as a painter, sculptor, graphic designer, set designer, costume designer, assistant director and author of essays, articles and artistic information columns for monographs, newspapers and magazines. He eventually became a critic, becoming a member of the Association International de Critiques d'Art (AICA). Starting from a classically figurative painting...
