Original c1954 walasse ting (1929-2010) red and black abstract color screenprint
this is just a great original piece. This is the first piece by walasse ting I have ever owned. His work is incredibly important and the only reason I was able to acquire this piece was because no one else was able to figure out who the artist was based on the signature. It took me a little while to figure it out as well. This is a stunning rare original early screenprint by ting. Apparently ting thought so highly of this print he gave it as a gift to someone and inscribed it in white crayon along the bottom margin. It is difficult to read but it says 'pour peggy and ????? Walasse 2 juin 1954' it is inscribed in french as this was done during his early years in paris. Black and red screenprint on sheet measuring 33 x 26 1/2 inches. Signed and numbered from an edition of 50 in pencil lower corners. Rich original colors. Sheet shows a few slight edge bumps and rubs from an early framing but otherwise in excellent condition. Slight rippling to the paper. Really a stunning example of this scarce print. I have not been able to find another example of this print anywhere. Print is unframed and will be shipped flat.
For those not familiar with the artist, his biography from a gallery that offers the artist's work reads: "born in wuxi, jiangsu in 1928, walasse ting is an artist celebrated for his colourful and bright depictions of animals, flora and sultry women. He briefly studied at the shanghai art academy in the 1940s, before leaving for paris in 1948 at the age of nineteen. There he became associated with artists belonging to the avant-garde group cobra. In 1957, he travelled to new york, where he befriended the american artist sam francis; here ting became strongly influenced by abstract expressionism and pop art. In 1964 he wrote one cent life, edited by francis and published by e.W. Kornfeld, which involved collaborating with twenty-eight european and american pop art and expressionist artists such as andy warhol, roy lichtenstein, and joan mitchell, and included sixty-two original lithographs. In 1977, he won the guggenheim fellowship award for his drawings. His paintings during this period are filled with bold dripping brushstrokes mixed with bright acrylic pigments, but by the 1970s, he began experimenting with figures, developing the distinctive style that we are so familiar with today. His paintings are a sheer testimony to love, life and beauty. His paintings of women, flowers, cats, fish, horses, and watermelons are often painted in a rich palette of bright acrylics on rice paper, layered with powerful effervescent brushstrokes in chinese ink. He passed away in 2010."
