Lithograph and screenprint on Arches cover // Shards V by Frank Stella, created in 1982, is a dynamic lithograph and screen print that reflects Stella’s exploration of abstraction and complex geometric forms. This limited edition work, produced in an edition of 100, features an energetic composition of intersecting shapes and vibrant colors layered on a textured background. The piece showcases a variety of colors, including greens, yellows, oranges, and pinks, with angular and curved forms that overlap and interact across the canvas. The intricate patterning and bold use of line lend a sense of movement and depth, creating the illusion of fragmented pieces or “shards” suspended in motion. Stella’s innovative use of mixed media and his precise layering techniques contribute to the complexity and vibrancy of the piece. Shards V exemplifies Stella’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of abstract art, offering viewers an engaging visual experience that invites repeated exploration.

What is geometric abstract art?
Artwork by Francois Morellet

What is geometric abstract art?

Geometric abstraction is a form of abstract art that uses geometric shapes arranged in a non-illusionistic space (though not always) and combined into non-representational (non-objective) compositions. Based on years of artistic research, some artists have proposed that geometric abstraction offers a solution to modern challenges by rejecting traditional illusionistic practices in favor of clarity and simplicity.
