Aquatint on Twinrocker paper // Donald Sultan's Playing Cards (King of Hearts), created in 1990, is an aquatint print on Twinrocker paper. This minimalistic depiction of a playing card strips down the traditional imagery of the King of Hearts to its essential symbols. A bold red heart sits in the center of the composition, while the top and bottom of the print feature simplified and abstracted kingly motifs. The use of negative space and the textured quality of the paper emphasize Sultan’s exploration of form and reduction. The delicate, hand-torn edges of the paper add a subtle tactile dimension to this otherwise sleek and refined artwork.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
