$75.00
Sku: CB5332
Artist: Jean-Paul Riopelle
Title: Composition 160-IX
Year: 1966
Signed: No
Medium: Lithograph
Paper Size: 15 x 11 inches ( 38 x 28 cm )
Image Size: 15 x 11 inches ( 38 x 28 cm )
Edition Size: 700
Framed: No
Condition: A-: Near Mint, very light signs of handling
Additional Details: Composition 160-IX is a first edition lithograph published on page 9 of Derrière Le Miroir (DLM) No. 160. This piece leans heavily into abstraction, yet hints at a recognizable form: the subtle suggestion of a bird in flight. The white shape in the upper right corner resembles a bird’s neck and beak rising from the composition, while the rest of the surface is energetically streaked with black, red, and a blend of green and light blue. The combination of colors, particularly the mix of green and blue, creates a turquoise-like effect, adding vibrancy to the otherwise chaotic marks. The streaks and splashes of paint imbue the piece with motion, while the faint, bird-like figure provides a focal point within the tumultuous environment.
