Screenprint on J.B. Green paper - Published by Marlborough Graphics, Inc., New York - Initialed and numbered in pencil - Literature: Belknap 58 Untitled (No. 12) from The Basque Suite (1971) by Robert Motherwell is a screenprint that reflects the artist’s powerful abstract expressionist vocabulary. Featuring a bold black form that seems to stride across the lower composition, the work is partially framed by a vivid orange block. This stark contrast underscores Motherwell’s sensitivity to color, gesture, and spatial tension. The print, part of a series published by Marlborough Graphics, echoes the artist’s response to political strife and cultural memory—especially referencing the Spanish Civil War and Basque resistance—through abstract language.

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.
