This beautiful limited edition woodcut by James Bettison was published in 1988 as part of the Art Against Aids portfolio, numbered 38/50. Superb provenance as it is was acquired from the original Art Against AIDS Portfolio published in Houston, Texas. This will be the first time the work will be removed from the portfolio. The late 1980s was the height of the AIDS epidemic, and this was one of many efforts by the creative community to raise funds to assist in fighting this deadly scourge that disproportionately affected the artistic community.
The complete Art Against AIDS Portfolio is comprised of 10 prints, in black and white and color, from 10 artists.
About James Bettison:
James Bettison (1957-1997) was a spirited visual artist, performer, and sculptor in Houston, TX. In vibrant color, his work fused realism and the abstract, and in his life, he stood as a testament to perseverance. After moving to Houston in 1980, Bettison appeared in an amazing number of groups and numerous solo shows throughout the city. In 1991, Bettison was hit with a series of surreal and tragic occurrences. First, a fire started in his home and studio, and most of his work burned. Soon after, he contracted spinal meningitis and fell into a coma. Despite doctors doubting his recovery, Bettison miraculously regained consciousness. Eventually, Bettison felt that he was at a similar place in his work, to where he was before the coma. Throughout these life-changing events, he came together with six fellow visionary artists to begin Project Row Houses. Bettison passed away and joined the ancestral realm May 11th, 1997.

Publisher: Long Point Gallery, Inc., Provincetown, Massachusetts; Printer: Bruce Porter from Trestle Editions Limited, New York
Rarely to market, this stunning 1988 woodcut was created by Nora Speyer as part of a portfolio produced for sale by Long Point Gallery, an artist's cooperative in Provincetown, Massachusetts.
Superb provenance as it is was acquired from the original Long Point Portfolio. This will be the first time the work will be removed from the portfolio.
It is hand signed and numbered from a very small edition of only 30; it is in fine condition, unframed and never framed, and housed in the original portfolio box, with the original colophon page, which also included works by 11 other artists.
For reference and provenance we have included an image of the colophon page from the complete portfolio.
About Nora Speyer:
The most exciting place to me is where I can communicate with the greatest number of artists. I can't live without some artists around. I'm not saying artists are likable. They can be very objectionable, but they are still my world.

Large Abstract Expressionist Figure Handmade Paper Etching Silkscreen Print
By Sam Messer
Located in Surfside, FL
This is done on a very interesting handmade paper (Japanese?) it is hand signed and numbered.
In this print the artist Sam Messer uses bold contrasting colors in a gestural manner. Messer's work, so apparently spontaneous or impulsive in its emphasis on highly dramatic gestural brushstrokes and intense color, is, in fact, carefully considered. The treatment of the composition conveys dynamic movement through the sweep...
