Edition of 60 - Hand-painted etching and aquatint with carborundum on 16 sheets of Velin Arches paper - In excellent condition // Venice, Afternoon by Howard Hodgkin, created in 1995, is a vibrant and expressive etching and aquatint that captures the essence of an afternoon in Venice. Utilizing carborundum and hand-painting on multiple sheets of Velin Arches paper, Hodgkin employs bold strokes and rich earth tones, punctuated by deep blues, to evoke both the heat and the tranquil mood of the Venetian landscape. The composition is layered with dappled patterns and dark marks, suggestive of shadows, reflections, and the interplay of light on water. Limited to an edition of 60, this artwork is characterized by Hodgkin’s gestural style, which prioritizes emotional resonance over realistic detail, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the ambiance of the scene rather than its literal depiction.

What is Process Art?
Process Art is an artistic movement and creative approach where the focus is on the act of creation rather than the final product. The term process in this context refers to the various stages of art-making, including gathering, sorting, associating, and organizing materials and actions. This movement emphasizes the artistic journey and the human expression involved in creating art, rather than the finished piece itself. Process Art is driven by inherent motivation, intentionality, and the rationale behind the actions, viewing the creative process as the true artwork.
