One of six prints that comprise the Presidential Portfolio - Original three-color lithograph on BFK Rives - Signed and numbered in pencil - Literature: Lembark 241 // Sam Francis’s Untitled (Radiant Splatter) (1981) is an energetic lithograph that exemplifies the artist’s abstract expressionist style. This piece, one of six prints in the Presidential Portfolio, features dynamic splashes and splatters of deep blues, greys, and blacks, radiating from a central diamond shape. The controlled chaos of the paint, applied in a gestural manner, creates a sense of movement and spontaneity. Francis’s use of negative space allows the explosive splatters to stand out, highlighting the contrast between the geometric center and the organic forms surrounding it. This limited edition lithograph is signed and numbered by the artist in pencil, printed on BFK Rives paper.

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.
