// Peace by Jack Youngerman is a 1973 silkscreen print, part of a limited edition of 150. This artwork features a bold composition of abstract shapes in red, white, and blue. The central white form is bordered by sweeping red and blue shapes, reminiscent of a flame or a stylized dove, both symbols of peace. The strong color contrast and minimalistic design give the piece a sense of movement and vitality. Youngerman’s work often explores organic forms and symbolic representations, and Peace uses its simple yet powerful palette and shapes to evoke harmony and unity, aligning with the print’s title.

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.
