Jack Youngerman – Peace, 1973 – Silkscreen

View in a Room

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.

Jack Youngerman (USA, 1926–2020) was a painter and sculptor known for his bold, geometric abstractions. Influenced by European modernism and American abstract expressionism, he explored dynamic forms and vivid color contrasts. Youngerman's work often reflected organic motifs, bridging hard-edged abstraction with nature-inspired fluidity, securing his place in the postwar art movement.

The whole primary thing I work with in my paintings is an exploration and articulation of all the possibilities of abstract shape.
- Jack Youngerman

Jack Youngerman (b. 1926 USA, d. 2020 USA) was an American artist celebrated for his contributions to abstract art and hard-edge painting. Youngerman's work is characterized by its bold use of color, geometric forms, and dynamic compositions, often exploring the interplay of shape and space. He was part of the post-war generation of artists who sought new directions in abstraction, influenced by his studies in Paris and associations with other avant-garde artists such as Ellsworth Kelly and Alexander Calder. Youngerman's works reflect a deep engagement with both European modernism and American abstraction, creating a unique visual language that combines elements of minimalism with the organic rhythms of nature. His paintings, sculptures, and prints have been exhibited in major museums, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, affirming his legacy as a significant figure in 20th-century art.

What is minimalism?

Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
