Black Gray Curves with Purple — Fine Art

Black Gray Curves with Purple - 1960 shows curved lines moving across the sheet. The eye follows the sweep from left to right. Thick grey and black strokes sit beside a purple band.

Empty space keeps the shape calm. Karl Benjamin worked in hard edge colour field painting during the post war years. This fine art print keeps those curves clear.

The fine art print uses matte paper so the purple stays flat and the greys do not shine. A light frame on a dark wall lets the curves stand out. It fits on the stairwell wall near the turn. From the landing you see the sweep of the lines, and the purple band reads as a single shape.
