Original Lithograph on Paper - This work is one of three unnumbered unique proofs apart from the edition printed by Hitoshi Hibo and published by The Litho Shop, Inc., Los Angeles. - Hand signed by the artist // Sam Francis’s 'Untitled (LAP19)' from 1972 is a dynamic exploration of abstract expressionism, capturing a flurry of black ink forms and splashes on a white paper background. This original lithograph, created at The Litho Shop in Santa Monica, bursts with energy as dark, organic shapes overlap with splattered and splashed patterns. The work’s layered textures and gestural strokes are characteristic of Francis’s free-form style, inviting viewers into a chaotic yet balanced space. This print, hand-signed by the artist, is one of only three unnumbered proofs, making it a rare example of Francis’s experimentation with lithography, blending spontaneity with controlled abstraction.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
