lithograph in colors on Arches Cover mould-made // Art 1981 Chicago by Robert Motherwell is a striking lithograph in colors, created in 1981. Measuring 34 x 25 inches, this limited edition print of 150 exemplifies Motherwell's signature Abstract Expressionist style. The composition features bold black brushstrokes layered over a vivid rectangular field of red, set against a minimalist beige backdrop. The dynamic interplay between the raw, gestural black forms and the structured red shape creates a sense of tension and balance, reflecting Motherwell's exploration of form, color, and emotional intensity. This work is a compelling example of his ability to evoke depth and drama through simplicity and abstraction.

What is lyrical abstraction ?
Lyrical abstraction is a descriptive term characterizing a type of abstract painting closely related to Abstract Expressionism, in use from the 1940s to the present. The term can also describe two distinct but related trends in post-World War II modernist painting. This art movement originated in Paris, France, after the war, emphasizing personal expression, spontaneity, and the emotional use of color and form.
