Signed and numbered - Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. // Scholes I by Al Held, created in 1991, is a limited edition screen-print published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. This vibrant print showcases Held's mastery in geometric abstraction, featuring overlapping shapes such as circles, rectangles, and triangles in a dynamic composition. The bold use of color, including shades of pink, green, yellow, and blue, adds a sense of depth and movement, as the forms appear to intersect and float within the space. Signed and numbered by the artist, this piece is a testament to Held’s exploration of spatial relationships and his ability to create visual complexity through simple geometric forms.

What is abstract art?
Abstract art uses form, shape, line, and color to create a visual experience without attempting to represent external reality. The composition exists independently of the world's visual references, focusing on expressing ideas and emotions through non-representational means.
