Rare, Vintage, Bold and Vibrant, Oversized, Morris Louis 1989 Exhibition Lithograph Poster, entitled, “Point of Tranquility”. This piece, part of his 1959 series, “Themes and Variations”, was published in France for The Hirschorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.

Morris, (1912- 1962) was an American, Modernist Abstract Expressionist artist, who worked, during the 1950s, with a collective of now-iconic masters such as Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollack, to create an art movement known as the “Color Field Paintings.” This collaborative genre was the premise for current Washington, D.C based art movement known as “The Washington Color School”.

This particular piece is an original Abstract, Expressionist lithograph print, custom framed, in a modern forest green painted metal frame with glass.

This focal work of art measures:
41 1/2" W x 35" H x 1" D.

The artwork is in very nice vintage condition. No sun fading, pinholes or wrinkling. It was archivally stored flat. See less
