"The print's title, 'Pouring Water', is suggested by its main motif, a coral shape recalling a schematic outline of a beaker. This is filled with parallel strokes of light blue and steel gray that emanate a lustrous sheen, bringing to mind the sparkling reflective properties of water. The beaker shape is the center for the centrifugal composition of fragmented red and coral planes and is accented by a lively chorus of multiple-colored small geometric shapes. Zigzags, loops, bloops, triangles, and crosses seem to disco across the page. Arranged in wavelike patterns, they create a complex network of contrasting relationships in color, plane, and line. Movements on the surface and in depth abound. Drawn with tusche and crayon on aluminum plates, 'Pouring Water' has an appealing spontaneity and immediacy." - ARTnews magazine

Notes:
Provenance: private collection - New York, NY; private collection - notable fashion illustrator Jay Hyde, Crawford, New York, NY; acquired from an art gallery in New York, NY; likely acquired directly from the publisher Universal Limited Art Editions, West Islip, NY. Lithograph drawn with tusche wash. Printed in two colors from two stones: red and green. Universal Limited Art Editions chop mark/blind stamp lower right.
"Frankenthaler: A Catalogue Raisonné - Prints 1961-1994" - Harrison - "Frankenthaler carefully chose a European handmade paper that would add another color and texture to the print" ... "By contrast, in "Altitudes", the artist created a bleed image so that the sheet of paper is smaller than the stone's image and the large red tusche wash sweeps across the surface of the yellow-pink J.B. Green Hayle Mill Bodleian paper, becoming warmed and enhanced by its color and texture."
"Universal Limited Art Editions - A History and Catalogue: The First Twenty-Five Years" - Sparks - "In "Bronze Smoke" (cat. no. 32), "Altitudes" (cat. no. 33), and "Door" (cat. no. 34), minimal compositions were replaced by fields of drifting, multilayered color, as rich and satisfying as her work on a much grander scale."
