Michael Challenger
Heaven Forbid 1979 Limited Edition Signed Screen Print

1979

About the Item

Michael Challenger Heaven Forbid - 1979 Print - Silkscreen 17.5'' x 25'' Edition: Signed in pencil, titled, dated and marked 291/300 Challenger's work is a powerful interplay of op-art and constructivism. His graphic work evokes the counter- play of shapes, forms and color of his predecessors, including Albers and Escher; but in a stronger and yet playful way. Although Challenger ably plots new horizons with his illusionist scenery, his concern is more with the credible realization of improbable figures without alienating his audience with an esoteric language. He uses simple units and the flat, hard-edged colours are deployed with cool detachment and yet, in spite of clear-cut geometric shapes, his paintings always defy one interpretation.
