Cutout from shaped powder-coated aluminum, printed the same on each side with UV cured archival inks, clear coated, and mounted to 1/4 inch stainless steel base - Incised with the artist signature on top of base; stamped with edition number and artist & publisher copyright, base underside.

Black Dress 3 (Oona) by Alex Katz is a sculptural cutout piece created in 2018, featuring Katz's signature style of bold simplicity and elegance. The work is made from shaped powder-coated aluminum, printed identically on both sides using UV-cured archival inks, and clear-coated for durability. Mounted on a stainless steel base, this life-size cutout stands at 61 cm tall, 18.75 cm wide, and 8 cm deep. The figure depicts a woman, Oona, dressed in a classic black dress, posed with one arm resting on her hip and the other extended, embodying Katz's refined focus on fashion and gesture. Katz’s minimalist aesthetic emphasizes clean lines and flat colors, capturing the essence of his muse with an almost abstract quality. The sculpture is incised with the artist's signature on the top of the base and includes the edition number, artist, and publisher copyright on the underside, affirming its authenticity and place within Katz’s exploration of portraiture and fashion.
