Nancy Graves – Vertigo, 1980 – Screen-print
Color screenprint on Arches Cover paper, hand signed by the artist.
Vertigo by Nancy Graves is a vibrant, dynamic screen print that captures a sense of swirling energy and complexity. Created in 1980 and signed by the artist, this limited edition print (from an edition of 60) displays Graves' mastery of color and form. The composition features a chaotic interplay of lines, dots, and organic shapes in an array of vivid colors, including reds, yellows, blues, and greens. Abstract in nature, the work invites viewers into a maze of movement, evoking a sensation of dizziness or disorientation akin to vertigo. Graves’ use of layered textures and intricate detailing reflects her interest in mapping, topography, and scientific imagery, turning these elements into a playful, visually stimulating work. The print measures 75.5 cm by 90.1 cm, filling the viewer's field with its bold, frenetic patterns.

Her work often explored natural phenomena, such as camels and lunar maps, blending scientific observation with artistic expression. In 1969, she became the youngest artist to have a solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art.

What is Process Art?
Artwork by Bruce Nauman

What is Process Art?

Process Art is an artistic movement and creative approach where the focus is on the act of creation rather than the final product. The term process in this context refers to the various stages of art-making, including gathering, sorting, associating, and organizing materials and actions. This movement emphasizes the artistic journey and the human expression involved in creating art, rather than the finished piece itself. Process Art is driven by inherent motivation, intentionality, and the rationale behind the actions, viewing the creative process as the true artwork.
