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 Hard Edge Art?
Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
