Lithograph in colours on Somerset paper - Published by Tyler Graphics, Ltd., Mount Kisco, New York (with their blindstamp) // Calligraphy I by Robert Motherwell, a 1989 lithograph, embodies the artist's exploration of gestural abstraction. Bold, sweeping strokes of deep black dominate the composition, layered over textured gray and accented with thin, energetic red lines. The piece evokes the spontaneous nature of calligraphy, suggesting movement and emotion through its expressive, raw forms. Printed on Somerset paper and published by Tyler Graphics, Ltd., this work reflects Motherwell's interest in the power of abstract form and the interplay of line and texture. The layered brushstrokes convey both intensity and depth, making the artwork feel both dynamic and contemplative.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
