Woodcut in colors, on Okawara. Signed, titled and dated in pencil. Published by D. Villani, New York. Image: 30 x 45 in. (76.2 x 114.3 cm.); Sheet: 36.75 x 51.9 in. (93 x 132.2 cm.). Conversation by Sean Scully is a 1986 color woodcut on Okawara paper, exemplifying the artist’s exploration of structure, rhythm, and subtle emotion through abstraction. Composed of vertically aligned rectangular panels in earthy tones—green-grays, rust, ochre, and deep black—the piece evokes a sense of architectural solidity and meditative balance. The textured surfaces and divisions suggest layered communication or interaction, fitting the work’s title. Published in an edition of 40 by D. Villani, New York, this print echoes Scully’s painterly approach to printmaking, merging the tactile grain of woodcut with his signature grid-based language.

What is geometric abstract art?
Geometric abstraction is a form of abstract art that uses geometric shapes arranged in a non-illusionistic space (though not always) and combined into non-representational (non-objective) compositions. Based on years of artistic research, some artists have proposed that geometric abstraction offers a solution to modern challenges by rejecting traditional illusionistic practices in favor of clarity and simplicity.
