Color Lithograph on Rives BFK paper // Sam Francis's Untitled (SF-257) from Marginalia: Hommage to Shimizu Suite (1979) is a vivid lithograph on Rives BFK paper. The composition centers around a series of rectangular forms, layered in deep reds and surrounded by splashes of vibrant blue, purple, yellow, and white. The overlapping colors and expressive brushstrokes create a sense of depth and movement, characteristic of Francis’s abstract expressionist style. The piece feels both structured and spontaneous, capturing the energy of abstract art while paying homage to Japanese aesthetics, as suggested by the suite’s title.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
