James Rosenquist Rails color lithograph and screenprint with fragmented design featuring lightning bolt, Japanese characters, and abstract shapes

Details

Artist

Styles

Color Lithograph / Screenprint - Edition of 40 // Rails by James Rosenquist is a color lithograph and screenprint created between 1975 and 1976. Known for his contributions to the Pop Art movement, Rosenquist often utilized bold graphics and juxtaposed images to convey complex ideas. In this piece, Rails presents a fragmented, high-contrast composition that seems to incorporate elements of industrial design and transportation. The lightning bolt symbol in the center divides the piece, suggesting movement, power, or disruption. On one side, Japanese characters add an enigmatic element, while abstract shapes and mechanical forms evoke a sense of speed and modernity. This limited edition of 40 captures Rosenquist's fascination with technology and visual intensity, making it both a visually striking and thought-provoking work.

What is appropriation?

Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
