BARCELONA #5, 1988, color lithograph, signed in pencil, from the numbered editions 75, sheet 30 x 22 // Barcelona #5 by Larry Bell, a color lithograph from 1988, captures the artist's exploration of light, color, and spatial perception. In this composition, overlapping rectangular shapes in vibrant shades of green, orange, pink, and teal contrast against a softly gradated background that shifts from deep purple to red and gray. The interplay of colors and geometric forms creates a sense of depth and illusion, making the flat surface appear multidimensional. Bell, known for his innovative work with light and shadow, invites viewers to experience a shifting visual perception as they take in the layered hues and forms. Limited to an edition of 75, this lithograph exemplifies Bell's refined approach to minimalist abstraction and his fascination with the boundaries of two-dimensional space.

What is Postmodernism?
Postmodernism is an art movement that emerged as a reaction against authority and traditional boundaries, seeking to blur the lines between art and everyday life. It aimed to bridge the gap between the cultural elite and the general public by embracing eclectic mixtures of earlier conventions and styles. Postmodernist art often challenges established norms and celebrates diversity, irony, and pastiche, making it a movement that reflects the complexities of contemporary culture.
