Screenprint on wove paper - Signed and numbered in pencil, with studio blindstamp // Sam Francis’ Web (SFS-136) (1972) is a screenprint that captures his signature exploration of color and abstraction. This vibrant piece features splashes and drips of primary colors—red, yellow, and blue—scattered across a white background. The composition’s spontaneous arrangement of layered, overlapping hues gives it a dynamic, almost pulsating energy. Resembling cosmic clusters or interconnected webs, the shapes evoke both chaos and cohesion, drawing the viewer into a visual experience of controlled randomness. Printed on wove paper and signed with a studio blindstamp, this work exemplifies Francis’ ability to translate the essence of action painting into printmaking, offering a bold interplay of color and form.

What is action painting?
Action Painting is a style of painting where the physical act of creating art—such as gestural brushstrokes, splashing or dripping paint, or moving and dancing while applying paint—is considered essential to the artwork itself. This approach emphasizes the artist's movement and spontaneity as integral to the creative process.
