Description
A bright and graphic abstract expressionist lithograph on paper titled "Coasas II" by Lamar Briggs. Hand signed in pencil on the bottom right with an annotation of 198/200 on the bottom left. Colorist abstractions This is an incredible example of Lamar Brigg's signature abstraction style that represents a sense of spirit and vitality. Similar to artists like Paul Jenkins, the abstract layering of transparent colors have been described as gem-like veils. He often combined fluid motions, sensitivity for brushstroke, and contrast of vivid colors and soft pastels in his lush abstract compositions. From a private collection. Dimensions: 29"h x 21.5"w (unframed). In very good condition. Lamar Briggs (1935-2015) was a contemporary abstract artist. Briggs received the 1963 "Ford Foundation Purchase Award" in an exhibition hosted at the Houston Museum of Fine Arts. This exhibition was judged by Alexander Calder, James Brooks, and James Johnson Sweeney and presented by Willem de Kooning. By the early 1970s, Briggs was already gaining a reputation for his colorist abstractions and began to experiment in acrylic paint. His style was heavily influenced by nature and music. During his long career, he exhibited internationally in Canada, Mexico, England, Germany, Switzerland, and Hungary and participated in more than 140 exhibitions.
