Signed, titled, and marked A.P. in the lower margin
Description
“Vertigo I” is a compelling study of scale, perception, and architectural rhythm. Hamzi’s lattice-like structure curves dramatically across the composition, its repeating geometric shadows creating a dynamic visual ascent. The viewer is drawn upward along the swooping form, experiencing the very sensation implied by the title—a disorienting, exhilarating pull toward open sky. The crisp blue gradient and warm umber tones heighten the illusion of depth, revealing Hamzi’s exceptional control of color etching techniques.
Context & Legacy
This Artist Proof highlights the experimental nature of printmaking, where subtle variations allow the artist to refine tonal relationships and compositional emphasis. Hamzi’s interest in the psychological impact of built spaces aligns with late-20th-century architectural abstraction, a genre examining how form shapes perception.
Collector’s Note
Artist Proofs are prized for their rarity and their direct connection to the artist’s hand. “Vertigo I” stands out as a technically refined and visually arresting example of Hamzi’s exploration of structure, scale, and visual tension—ideal for collectors drawn to architectural modernism.
