Original screenprint in colors on Saunders Waterford paper - Hand-signed in pencil, and numbered // Ariel 2 by Alex Katz, created in 2021, is a vibrant screen-print that epitomizes Katz's minimalist yet emotionally rich portrait style. The artwork features a close-up of a female face, rendered with clean lines and soft colors. The subject, Ariel, is depicted with a calm and direct gaze, her red hair framing one side of her face. Katz's signature flat planes of color and economy of detail bring out the subject's personality, emphasizing her eyes and expression while leaving out extraneous detail. This focus on simplicity highlights the emotions and nuances of the subject, making the viewer connect more deeply with the figure. The soft tones of peach, light pink, and orange create a warm, inviting palette that enhances the striking features of the figure. The print’s large scale allows for a close, personal engagement with the image, where the minimal strokes and subtle details reveal Katz’s mastery of form and mood.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
