About the Item

Alan Turner’s “Samba” is a vibrant and dynamic monoprint that embodies the rhythmic energy and vivid colors of its namesake. Created in 1982, this work is part of a limited edition of only five prints, making it a rare and coveted piece for collectors. This particular print, numbered 4 of 5, is in good condition, preserving the intensity of its hues and the crispness of its intricate patterns. Measuring 17.5 x 23 inches, “Samba” is a testament to Turner’s mastery of color and form. The composition is alive with intertwining lines and bold, contrasting colors, evoking the movement and spirit of a samba dance.

"Untitled"
By Tom Baldwin
Located in Surfside, FL
Recently graduated from Pasadena’s legendary Art Center College of Design, Tom Baldwin created the series of inkjet prints Japanese Gardens in 1996 on his computer, using then-nascent graphics technology to "paint" his images on the computer screen. Baldwin embraced this technology and its accompanying printing process not just for the speed and ease of their use, but because the artist could achieve the absolute flatness that the principles of modernism preached but ultimately--because of the limitations of their tools--never reached. These colorful, semi-abstracted views of Japanese temple landscapes subtly, but radically redefine picture space. Baldwin shifts fore and backgrounds, giving equal weight to skies and hillsides. Endowing a lowly bush with a vibrant purple or orange might cause it to pop out of proportion, but ultimately lends balance and stability to the work itself, in short, returning the composition to its original, harmonious whole in keeping with the subject matter. these original prints employ a color scheme that seems more reminiscent of 1980s Japanese pop art beer advertisements...
