About the Item

Additionally signed verso, dated, titled and inscribed 'Monotype printed at Don Farnsworth's Magnolia Editions. Oil, litho ink on paper'. Sheet dimensions: 31.25 x 42.5 Inches. Hungarian-born Maine resident, Miklos Pogany, is a prolific artist with an impressive exhibition history and work in the permanent collections of many major museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. A master of multiple media, Pogany creates vivid works based on nature and the built environment, exploring and pushing the parameters of each medium. The artist describes his motivation as follows: "I react to wonder, desires, conflicts, meanings, memories, revenge, sexuality, love and death. I gather all these fragments and make some personal sense of it all."
