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 ‘light and space’?
The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
