Helen Frankenthaler, an integral member of the second wave of Abstract Expressionists, was a trailblazer of the modern printmaking movement, endlessly pushing and transcending boundaries through relentless experimentation. Frankenthaler invented the 'soak-stain' method during the 1950s, in which she applied washes of thinned paint to unprimed canvas to create a fluid, watercolour-like effect. We see the same method expertly applied in this later screenprint of Frankenthaler's. The warm, sunny tones, gracefully flow into one another in this abstract piece, demonstrating the artists skill as a printmaker.

Screenprint in colours, 2005, on Somerset wove paper, signed and dated in pencil, numbered from the edition of 128, printed by Brand X Editions, Ltd., New York, published by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts/List Print Program, New York, 76.5 x 93.7 cm. (30 1/8 x 36 7/8 in.)
