Stamped and signed on the reverse, also bearing the estate stamp and inscribed "SF82-263" in another hand. Registered in the archive of the Sam Francis Foundation, Glendale, USA for the online Catalogue Raisonné Project under number SF82-263. // This untitled acrylic on paper from 1982 demonstrates Sam Francis at the height of his mature period, presenting a densely saturated all-over composition of reds, blues, teals, greens, and blacks. The explosive arrangement of splatters and poured pigment fills the picture plane with characteristic chromatic intensity, leaving minimal white ground visible. Registered with the Sam Francis Foundation under SF82-263, the work reflects Francis's ongoing dialogue with Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting, channeling the luminous energy and gestural freedom that defined his contribution to postwar American abstraction.

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.
