Red, white and denim blue patriotic electric guitar (an iconic image of American Rock and Roll)
Signed and dated "Aaron Fink" lower right
on Arches deckle edged paper. it is pencil signed, dated and numbered in pencil. (this is possibly a woodblock or woodcut print from the looks of it but I have seen it described as a lithograph so I am selling it thus.)
Born in Boston, Fink received his BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art and his MFA from the Yale University School of Art. Aaron Fink has been involved in art since he was a child; his father, Alan Fink, co-runs Newbury Street’s Alpha Gallery and the paintings of Barbara Swan, Aaron Fink’s mother, have received considerable critical acclaim.His work has been exhibited widely throughout the U.S., Europe, Japan and Australia. He has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Muskegon Museum of Art, Michigan, the Rockford Art Museum, Illinois, and Colorado State University, Fort Collins.
In 2002 a monograph on Fink’s work, Out of the Ordinary, was published, with text by Eleanor Heartney. In 1983 Fink met the collector John Powers, who remained a strong supporter of his work until his death in 1999. Fink’s work is represented in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Hara Museum, Tokyo, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, among many others. Fink currently divides his time between Boston and Rockport, Massachusetts.
