About the Item

A powerful and graphic work by renowned American artist and printmaker Dean Meeker (1920–2002), this original mid-century print captures the dynamic energy of a stylized horse and rider rendered in bold contours and a rich palette of ochre, slate blue, and black. The composition is alive with motion and tension, showcasing Meeker’s signature blend of expressionism and abstraction. Meeker was a pioneer in American printmaking, known for his technical innovations and for infusing traditional subjects with modernist vigor. This piece exemplifies his mastery of silkscreen printing with its layered textures, confident linework, and visceral impact. This is a rare and desirable example of Meeker’s early postwar printmaking — ideal for collectors of American modernism, WPA-era artists, or bold graphic works that command attention. Image dimensions: 20.25" H x 10.25" W Mat board dimensions: 26" H x 18" W.
