Signed by the artist in pencil, and numbered - Original lithograph on BFK rives paper (F. 143) // Bent Blue by Jasper Johns is a limited edition lithograph created in 1971. This minimalist work features abstract, three-dimensional letterforms arranged vertically along a central dividing line, as if bending and twisting around an invisible axis. Johns’ use of clean, precise lines on a stark white background emphasizes the graphic nature of the forms, creating a sense of balance and tension. The letters seem suspended in space, exploring themes of form, abstraction, and the intersection between language and art. Printed on BFK Rives paper, this piece is signed and numbered by Johns, highlighting his meticulous approach to both concept and execution.

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.
