About the Item

The 1958 original lithography by Hans Hartung, titled "Gris-bleu L51" stands as a remarkable piece within the artist's oeuvre, showcasing his mastery of abstract expressionism and dynamic brushwork. Created as part of a limited edition series, this lithograph represents a significant exploration of color, form, and texture. Hans Hartung, a prominent figure in the art world of the 20th century, was known for his innovative approach to abstract art and his distinctive use of gestural abstraction. In "Gris-bleu L51" Hartung employs a subdued color palette dominated by shades of gray and blue, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere within the composition. The lithograph is characterized by Hartung's signature brushstrokes, which convey a sense of spontaneity and energy. Each stroke seems to dance across the surface of the paper, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. The use of Arches paper adds to the richness of the piece, providing a textured backdrop that enhances the tactile quality of the artwork. As part of a limited edition of only 30 exemplaires, "Gris-bleu L51" holds a special significance for collectors and enthusiasts of Hartung's work. Each print is a unique expression of the artist's vision, capturing a moment of creative inspiration frozen in time.
