Michele ZalopanyAcrobats, Michele Zalopany. Black and white monotype painting landscape 1988
1988
About the Item
In this black and white monotype, Zalopany has captured a duo of tumblers atop a roof, as onlookers stare in wonder. The artist is able to capture movement and shadow with fluid swaths of ink and delicately-painted details, defining sun-lit areas by removing ink with a single gesture.
