(21½ x 21¾ in.) Catalogue Raisonne: Axsom 252 Over a period of four years, Stella created a body of prints whose titles all came from ‘The Dictionary of Imaginary Places’ by Alberto Mangual and Gianni Guadalupi. Each work from this series is recognisable for its teaming compositions of twisting, colliding and knotted forms. The shapes appear to spill out of their sheet, seemingly trying to escape their frames. As he had done since the ‘Swan Engravings...

Two whaling ships meet out at sea, one named after an Indigenous American tribe and the other after the first king of the northern Kingdom of Israel, the latter set upon by a malignant epidemic and a sailor gone mad with the belief that he is the Archangel Gabriel. Both ships are plagued, one by sickness and the other by obsession, and neither heeds the warnings of the mad prophet. Built out in layers of paper that have been printed using techniques like lithography and etching, this colossal print by Frank Stella employs careful color against warping black and white grids to give the impression of control slowly slipping and giving way to chaos.

ONE WEEK ONLY SALE AT 40% "Untitled III" is a work that displays James Hansen's intense colors and shapes of his abstract and surrealist style. This print made with etching and aquatints with hand-coloring on Arches paper pops with the illusion of three dimensions set against a muted background of esoteric shapes and symbols. The print is 32-3/4 x 25-3/4 inches and is signed and numbered from an edition of 30 by the artist. Numbered edition may not necessarily be number 20 as there are multiple prints in the possession of Collected Detroit. James Hansen was born in 1951 in New Haven, Connecticut and spent most of his artistic career in Provincetown, Massachusetts where he befriended and worked with Paul Bowen...
