About the Item

Color woodcut/relief John Buck’s newest woodcut The Fountain is all about water. It features a large central image of a flowing fountain surrounded by a tapestry of incised images in the background. The incised images start at the top with happy mermaids, mermen and fish frolicking in abundant water. Below Buck presents scenes of water polluted by factories, oil wells and fracking and the resulting damage to our water supply.

The Night Prism
By John Buck
Located in Lyons, CO
Color Woodcut, Edition 20. In “The Night Prism”, angled surfaces meander in an ornamental fashion delineating a human figure. This constructed body, the central motif of the print, is not meant to be an animated, mobile form, but a prism, a tool to refract or reflect light.

We seem to be witnessing a world gone wrong...
