1980 Roy Ahlgren “Stratification” Op Art Serigraph

About the Item

Excellent serigraph by American Op Art artist Roy Ahlgren (1927 - 2011). This piece named "Stratification" is signed, dated (1980) and numbered (74/145) by the artist in pencil. Overall size: 30" x 23" Image size: 26" x 19" Print itself is in excellent condition. Signs of wear on the back and side of the print which will easily cover up once you have your print framed. See pictures for details. Roy Ahlgren was born in 1927 in Erie, PA. He is a self-taught painter. In 1964 he began to work in op art and hard edge technique. He received more than 60 prizes, among them purchase awards from the Seattle Art Museum, Minot State College, Texas Tech University Museum, and the Mississippi Art Association. He exhibited in many national print shows. (from bio provided by the Associated American Artists, NY.) Roy Ahlgren entered the art world somewhat in reverse. While most artists start by recording realistic subjects and moving to abstract work later in their careers, Ahlgren began creating geometric abstract designs and continued to do so for 23 years. His media was both serigraphy and traditionally brushed pigment onto canvas. His compositions were unique with many being mathematically constructed with considerable precision.

Jean Michel Folon "L' Arbre" Serigraph for Gallerie Marquet, Paris, 1975
By Jean-Michel Folon
Located in San Carlos, CA
Gorgeous 1975 serigraph after Jean Michel Folon's beautiful "l'arbre" or "forest". Produced in 1975 by Editions Marquet for Gallery Marquet in Paris, France. This print is in excellent condition, see pictures for details. It comes unframed. Jean-Michel Folon’s (Belgium 1934 - 2005) enigmatic landscapes and mysterious humanoid forms helped revolutionize conceptual approaches to illustration in the late 20th century. While Folon has worked across multiple disciplines—including painting, textile, sculpture, stained glass, and printmaking—he is perhaps best known for his drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes in the vein of Surrealist masters such as Salvador Dalí and René Magritte. These works depicted idyllic forests and prison-like skyscrapers populated by butterfly or bird/human hybrids he called “Everymen.” Folon’s drawings were published in such publications as Esquire, The New Yorker, and Time, among others, and he illustrated a number of well-known books. Folon widely exhibited during his lifetime, including at institutions such as Les Arts Décoratifs, the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London, and the Musée Picasso.
