About the Item

Shipping on request This impressive offset lithograph by Serge Poliakoff, a significant figure in abstract art, captures the powerful dynamism of his work. The skillful interplay of red and blue in this harmonious artwork from 1972, part of the Munich Olympic Games Art Series, creates a fascinating visual tension and bestows upon the space an aura of refinement and elegance. Poliakoff's mastery in abstraction is evident in a composition that is both energetic and balanced. Signed in stone by the artist, this vintage piece encapsulates the essence of its time and is a valuable addition to any art collection. Serge Poliakoff, born on January 8, 1900, in Moscow, Russia, was a prominent figure in 20th-century abstract art. After relocating to Paris in 1923 and briefly pursuing a career as a cabaret guitarist, he found his calling in painting. By 1935, he increasingly embraced abstraction, utilizing color without representational references. Poliakoff developed a unique form of abstract painting, juxtaposing colored fields. In the 1940s, he predominantly worked with shades of gray and brown before expanding his palette to include vibrant, contrasting colors from 1950 onwards. His later works were characterized by a reduction in color intensity to earthy tones and a tendency towards monochromatic compositions. This evolution reflected his artistic maturity and pursuit of expressive depth. Serge Poliakoff's works are renowned for their powerful abstraction and subtle mastery of color. He passed away on October 12, 1969, in Paris, France, leaving behind a significant artistic legacy in modern art history.

Frank Stella The Dayton's Bag, 1984 Two (2) separate offset lithographs: one on each side of a mixed media paper shopping bag 18 1/2 × 16 × 4 inches Plate signed "Frank Stella '84" twice: once on each side of the bag (see photos) This paper shopping bag with two different color offset lithographs (one on each side) was created by Frank Stella along with his longtime publisher Tyler Graphics. The work is plate signed Frank Stella on the top of each side, and each side bears the printed text, "Dayton's Salutes the Opening of Walker Art Center's New Galleries. Premiere Exhibition Selections from Tyler Graphics, 23 September '84 to 17 May '85." This elegant work, produced with the highest quality lithography by Frank Stella at Tyler Graphics, was created in a limited quantity solely for VIP collectors at that one day's event as it was a true one-off creation. Not too many of them have survived a quarter century on, and rarely in such good condition. Not too many people you know can boast that they possess a Frank Stella shopping bag. Note that this listing is for one two sided shopping bag, each side with a different color lithograph - so it's actually two Frank Stella lithographs...
