About the Item

DUNHAM, Carroll. Shadows. Ten original full sheet drypoints, with justification, title- leaf, and tissue interleaves. Oblong folio, 350 x 584 mm, the whole enclosed in publisher's cloth chemise and titled clamshell box. West Islip, NY: Universal Limited Art Editions, Inc 1989. One of two copies designated as Printer's Proofs, in addition to fourteen numbered suites, five Artist's Proofs, and two cancellation proofs. Each drypoint was printed from a pewter plate on Richard de Bas handmade paper, and signed, numbered ("P.P. 2/2") and dated by the artist in the image. The artist has also signed, dated and numbered the title-leaf. Printing on pewter plates resulted in an extremely small edition, because the plates were so soft. Dunham (b. 1949), American painter and print maker: "... initially influenced by Post-Minimalism, process art and conceptual art, he was soon attracted to the tactility and allusions to the body in the work of Brice Marden, Robert Mangold and Robert Ryman. Spurred on by the revival of interest in Surrealism in the 1970s, Dunham began to make abstract, biomorphic paintings reminiscent of the work of Arshile Gorky and André Masson, executed with a comic twist ..." - (Falconer, Grove Art Online).

Piramidi
By Sol LeWitt
Located in New York, NY
LEWITT, Sol. Piramidi. 10 lithographs, each 222 × 680 mm, in publisher's cardboard box, preserved in a new cloth folding box. Turin: Marco Noire Editore, 1986. This stunning set of lithographs recall the splendid wall drawings of pyramids that the artist conceived of between 1985 and 1994. These consisted of floor to ceiling pyramids constructed of multiple facets, set against uniform backgrounds. Each work was drawn directly on the walls in successive layers of delicate ink washes, alternating in yellow, red, blue and gray. It is no accident that the results recall Renaissance frescoes since LeWitt first developed this technique after moving from New York to Spoleto, Italy in 1980. Unlke the wall drawings, many of which no longer exist, this set of lithographs bears lasting testimony to Lewitt's genius. An immaculate copy in its original cardboard box. One of an edition of 400 copies, signed by Lewitt. Barbara Krakower Gallery, Sol Lewitt Prints...
