The 'Newfoundland Series' prints and their counterparts in the painting series of the same name are variant configurations of the 'Protractor Series' paintings of 1967-71. Their titles refer to two towns and a bay located on the west coast of Newfoundland.In the prints, the squared and double-squared formats of interlacing protectors are framed by crisp white margins, creating an effect quite different from the overwhelming immediacy of the paintings. The regular margins create a psychological distancing, and in the prints these designs of the paintings are, in a sense, re-presented for our consideration.
