Original lithograph on BFK Rives paper - Hand signed and numbered in pencil - From the rare limited Trial Proof Edition - Printed and published by The Litho Shop, Inc., Santa Monica // Spring Solution by Sam Francis, created in 1972, is a limited edition lithograph that exemplifies the artist's mastery of abstraction and fluid forms. The composition features splashes and drips of black ink scattered across a white background, evoking a sense of spontaneity and movement. The organic shapes and splatters resemble abstract floral or cellular forms, adding depth and complexity to the otherwise minimalistic design. Francis's use of negative space emphasizes the dynamic energy of the splattered forms, creating a visual rhythm that feels both random and intentional. This piece, with its experimental and gestural qualities, reflects Francis's exploration of movement, space, and the emotive potential of abstract expressionism.

What is Art Informel?

Art Informel is a French term referring to the gestural and improvisational techniques common in abstract painting during the 1940s and 50s. It encompasses various styles that dominated these decades, characterized by informal, spontaneous methods. Artists used this term to describe approaches that moved away from traditional structures and embraced more expressive, unstructured techniques.
