Description
Title: "Hand",
die-cut screenprint mounted to acrylic, two layers one on top of the other with the bottom layer under the acrylic 1975 incised signature lower right, incised edition number 15/100, dated '75' Additional and larger photos and more information may often be available in our main site catalog.
Size info: sheet: 22.75 x 20 inches(57 x 50 cm.) plate size: 16.5 x 14 in. (41.91 x 35.56 cm),
Framing: In a welded corner 2 inch deep aluminum shadow box, likely designed by the artist, to provide a 3D shadow effect.
,
The artist is noted for his three dimensional boxes, cutouts and other treatments to achieve special depth effects.
From the NY Times: "Hilton Kramer's observation of long ago that there lurked at the core of Mr. Samaras's work ''the emotions of a heartless adolescent and the ideas of a brilliant decorative mind'' still holds true, although the heartlessness now looks more like a kind of irresponsibility. This may be what enables him to remain the ''embodiment of imagination,'' as a museum curator recently characterized him.
