About the Item

This captivating screen print, titled "Man", is a compelling example of Mid-Century Modernist art, created by artist Sheng Hey in the early 1970s. The print is signed by the artist and is part of a rare limited edition, numbered 10/20, making it an exceptional collector's item. The artwork showcases bold, stylized imagery characteristic of Mid-Century Modern design: clean lines, geometric shapes, and a refined aesthetic sensibility that balances abstraction with humanistic themes. Through the subject matter of "Man," Hey explores the relationship between individuality and form, encapsulating the era's fascination with identity, modernity, and the human experience. Signed and limited to just 20 editions, this print is not only rare but stands as a testament to Sheng Hey's vision and contribution to 20th-century art. It is a striking and evocative work that embodies the explorative spirit of modernist aesthetics in the early 1970s. Fitted in a White Gilt gallery frame, and in Excellent Vintage Condition.

Untitled #1, 1964 from New York Ten
By Mon Levinson
Located in New York, NY
This dynamic work was realized by the esteemed 20th Century modern artist Mon Levinson in 1964. The work was realized in 1964, and printed in 1965 by Chiron Press in New York- the same year that Levinson was included in the seminal Op-Art exhibition "The Responsive Eye", alongside contemporary luminaries such as Bridget Riley. An identical work from this edition resides in the permanent collection of the New York MoMA. This mixed media work consists of an translucent vinyl sheet layered over a print- part etching, part lithograph. The clear vinyl sheet is embossed with a tight pattern of sinuously curved repeating black lines and is subtly raised in places- creating a subtle three dimensionality and dynamic sense of movement. The paper is inscribed with the same recurring pattern of snaking black lines, like a fine filigree, with two weighty black geometric forms that appear to crowd the composition. Smaller geometric forms reside within creating the apparition of negative space in the bone hued paper. The juxtaposition of the delicate texture and colossal feeling forms imbues the piece with a stunning dynamism and tension, helping to explain why Levinson is among the most influential and important artist to come out of the Op Art movement. His work is in the permanent collections of important institutions around the world including the Museum of Modern Art as well as the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. Signed by the artist and marked 18/200. The work comes presented in a custom walnut and white gilt frame...
