Barnett Newman

(Tuesday) (Sunday)

Executed in color, the sheets dating from 1944–1945 are surprisingly playful. The subsequent black brush drawings featuring vertical bands anticipate the second period of focused graphical work in 1959–1960, when Newman scrutinized the interrelation between surfaces and “zips.” Beginning in 1961, he created prints that are in some ways an extension of his drawings and paintings while also addressing concerns intrinsic to the medium such as seriality and proportion.
