Set 4 Dry points // My Left Hand Holding a Square 4 by Jonathan Monk is a limited edition set of 4 drypoint prints from 2008, produced in an edition of 40. Each print depicts a simple outline of Monk's left hand, with a square shape centered in the palm. The repetition of the hand and square across the four prints creates slight variations in line texture and placement, inviting close observation of each subtle difference. Monk’s minimalist approach and the deliberate use of repetition evoke themes of identity, continuity, and the physical act of holding. The restrained, meditative composition encourages viewers to ponder the significance of holding a form, both literally and symbolically, and reflects on the uniqueness of each impression in the series.

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.
