Lithograph in colors, on Rives BFK paper // 'Dark Cup (SF-141)' by Sam Francis, created in 1973, is a powerful lithograph that exemplifies the artist’s signature abstract expressionist style. The composition is dominated by dynamic splatters, drips, and splashes of deep black ink, layered intricately across a white background. The bold, gestural marks create a sense of chaotic energy while simultaneously inviting introspection. Measuring 70.2 x 105.4 cm, this work showcases Francis’s mastery of balancing spontaneity with deliberate composition, offering viewers a visceral encounter with abstraction and the expressive possibilities of lithography.

What is abstract art?
Abstract art uses form, shape, line, and color to create a visual experience without attempting to represent external reality. The composition exists independently of the world's visual references, focusing on expressing ideas and emotions through non-representational means.
