This is an original Mel Bochner First Color Quartet 1990 Lithograph. The lithograph unfolds across four separate sheets of Canson paper in intense dark colors –purple, blue and magma orange/gold– each measuring 20” x 15” that come together to form a square with a void in the center. The dynamic layered composition travels across the different color zones or states as a single continuous force field. The work invites the viewer to reflect on formal relationships, continuity, and perception.
