Etching and aquatint on Pescia Italia - Signed, titled, dated and numbered on front - Published by Multiples, Inc., New York // Federal Spending (second state) by James Rosenquist, created in 1978, is an etching and aquatint on Pescia Italia paper. This limited edition print reflects Rosenquist’s characteristic abstract and pop art style, using bold red tones and geometric shapes. The composition is divided into three distinct forms: a fluid, organic shape on the left, a fragmented circular pattern in the center, and a pair of elliptical forms connected by curved lines on the right. The arrangement and design of these shapes suggest themes of division, balance, and structure, possibly commenting on economic or political concepts, hinted at by the title Federal Spending. The minimalist approach combined with the vibrant red hue creates a visually striking and thought-provoking piece that engages with social commentary through abstraction.

What is pop-art?
Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
