About the Item
Contemporary gray and white monoprint in oil-based inks, paper and Mylar relief on Rives BFK paper of a Marquess and Marchioness crown and a fleur-de-lis pattern towards the bottom of the composition. Available unframed. Signed, dated and titled on verso.
From the artist's statement:
I have always been drawn to the beautiful, the crafted, the decorative. Historical research on crowns from several cultures expanded my involvement with decorative, culturally inspired patterns that inform my painting.
The Almost Enlightenment monoprints series explores the opulence and maleficence of crowns: an exquisite decorative arts object adorned with often nefarious political and/or religious patterning. Crowns conjure fairy tales but also omnipotent, autocratic power. Created by anonymous artisans to canonize dynasties, crowns are testaments to conquest, cultural migration and assimilation.
This dichotomy is underscored by the flora and fauna designs on crowns: they reference either local motifs from peacefully aligned country or exotic designs from conquered empires. Lyrical terms such as fleur-de-lis or arabesque mask the authority embedded in crowns. Crowns also exploit a conquered country’s mineral wealth: the Koh-i-noor diamond in the UK Crown Jewels, or the plundered Andean gold and emeralds that decorate Spanish crowns.
The monoprint series expanded my sculptural project of royal decorative arts. Using additional historic research and defying the more common painterly approach to monoprints, the Almost Enlightenment series emanates with a physicality drawn from my background as a sculptor. Hand cut Mylar templates of crowns and tiaras formed the printing matrixes. Each print was sent through the press multiple times to build up layers, to create subtle tones and textures reminiscent of etchings and aquatints. Templates were printed both positively and as silhouettes to create wide variety within the black, monochromatic series.
Margaret Lanzetta investigates cross currents of world decorative traditions in relation to contemporary cultural, political, and environmental narratives, creating tactile works that meld geopolitics with centuries-old motifs. The resulting work also references modern painting traditions such as the grid, and the Pattern and Decoration movement. Approximating a cultural dialogue, the works offer a sense of hope in an otherwise globalized cacophony of cultures and religions.
Margaret Lanzetta has exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, in the Queens Museum Biennial, Kenise Barnes Fine Art; Jason Andrew, Norte Mar venues; Elizabeth Heskin Gallery, all in New York. Lanzetta’s work has been commissioned by Arts for Transit, New York subway. Her works are held in numerous collections including the Museum of Modern Art, NY; the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; the Yale University Museum; and the Harvard Museums.

Cabin I: modernist, urban architectural monoprint & collage in gray, blue, black
Located in Bryn Mawr, PA
"Cabin I" is a Bauhaus-inspired monotype and collage (work on paper) reminiscent of the aesthetic of Le Corbusier. It is part of Bouton’s "Habitat and Urban Matter" series, which is inspired by the straight lines of modernist architecture and hard-edged geometrical forms of the urban environment. Bouton, a French printmaker from Paris who has also lived in London, Myanmar, Ivory Coast, Senegal, and Turkey, creates work that responds to her experiences during her travels and the cultures she encountered. Since settling in the Philadelphia area, she has been inspired by the urbanism of the city, whether a sleek, new apartment block, an abandoned warehouse, or a half-demolished home. Her latest works are interpretations of these buildings, with both broad street views and focused details from single structures –- the pattern of the skyline, a patchwork of broken windows, an industrial color palette. She is drawn to the history of the spaces and lives lived within these buildings, as well as their intrinsic beauty of the structures, whether that beauty emerges from design or degradation, or some combination of the two. Signed and dated.
Bouton is a French artist living and working in the Philadelphia area whose boundary-pushing printmaking and paper works exhibit influence from living and working in international cities across the globe. Bouton earned her BFA in Painting and Printmaking and her MFA in Arts and Textile Design from the prestigious ESSAA Duperré in Paris, France. Since leaving Paris 15 years ago, Bouton has lived and exhibited her work internationally in Paris (France), London (UK), Philadelphia (USA), Rangoon (Burma/Myanmar), Abidjan (Ivory Coast), Dakar (Senegal) and Istanbul (Turkey). She has presented solo exhibitions at the Biennale de l’Art Africain...
