Adolph Gottlieb Germination 1969 lithograph abstract burst disc gestural field colors Arches paper

Lithograph in colors on Arches paper. Hand signed and dated lower left. // Germination (1969) is a lithograph in colors on Arches paper by Adolph Gottlieb, one of the key figures of Abstract Expressionism and the New York School. The work belongs to Gottlieb's celebrated Burst series, in which a luminous disc or orb hovers above a turbulent, gestural field -- a composition that reduces the tension between order and chaos, sky and earth, to its most essential opposition. In Germination, the burst form is energized and dynamic, its ruptured lower zone contrasting powerfully with the contained mass above. Signed and dated lower left, this lithograph captures the full expressive range of Gottlieb's mature language: bold, deliberate, and deeply felt. It stands as an eloquent statement of the Abstract Expressionist conviction in the power of pure form to convey universal human experience.

What is automatism?

Automatism refers to a technique in the creative process that accesses material from the unconscious or subconscious mind. It is based on Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic method of free association. Artists value this process for its ability to inspire creative thought and spontaneous creation.
