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. Turner’s work is often characterized by its abstract yet highly emotive quality, and this piece is no exception. The interplay of rich purples, greens, and oranges creates a visual rhythm that draws the viewer in, encouraging them to feel the beat and flow of the artwork. As part of the Disney Contemporary Resort Collection, “Samba” carries with it a distinguished provenance. The collection is known for its selection of works that push the boundaries of contemporary art, making Turner’s piece a fitting addition. The connection to the Disney Contemporary Resort adds an extra layer of cultural significance, linking the work to a venue celebrated for its innovation and artistic curation. For art lovers and collectors, “Samba” represents a unique opportunity to own a piece of both artistic and cultural history. Its limited edition status, combined with its association with the Disney Contemporary Resort, makes it a valuable addition to any collection. Whether displayed in a home or professional setting, “Samba” will undoubtedly captivate and inspire, serving as a vibrant reminder of the joy and energy that art can bring.
