Joan Mitchell

1990

About the Item

Artist: Joan Mitchell (1925-1992) Title: Champs (Fields); from the Carnegie Hall Centennial Fine Art portfolio Year: 1990 Edition: 60, plus 13 artist’s proofs, and additional publisher’s proofs. Medium: Lithograph in colors on wove paper Size: 60 x 40 inches Condition: Excellent Inscription: Signed, and designated as a ‘Trial Proof’ by the artist. Notes: Published by Fine Art Ltd., Saint Louis. The largest and most monumental graphic of Joan Mitchell’s career, this graphic is from one of the artist’s later series entitled Champs, meaning ‘fields’ in French and is indicative of her style with large, sweeping brushstrokes and vibrant combinations of color. Reds, blues and greens merge together on a grey background to depict the concept of the wild yet dazzlingly colorful fields she represents. Technical Definition: According to Christie’s, a ‘Trial Proof’ is an early impression, taken before the image is complete, incorporating an artist’s revisions and changes, therefore different to the numbered, editioned prints. These prints are often unique in either composition, color or paper type. These prints are often annotated `T.P.’ in the place of numbering. JOAN MITCHELL (1925-1992) Mitchell gave personal support to many young artists who came to stay with her at Vétheuil—sometimes for just one night; sometimes for an entire summer. Correspondence in her papers reveals that this generosity often had a life-changing impact on those that spent time with her. Her generosity in her own lifetime continued after her death with the formation of the Joan Mitchell Foundation, called for in her will in order to create support and recognition for individual artists. In addition, the Foundation mission includes the promotion and preservation of her legacy, which includes her remarkable body of work, her papers, including correspondence and photographs, and other archival materials related to her life and work.
