Stainless Stealer 1966 — Fine Art

Stainless Stealer 1966 shows thin curved lines and flat painted planes set against a plain field. The shapes read like the cut out forms in Alexander Calder kinetic sculpture practice. You see the open space between the metal shapes and the soft tones that hold the picture together.

The fine art frame in white gives the print a clean edge on the wall. The white frame sits against the painted shapes without pulling the eye away from the lines.

Over a kitchen sink the bright shapes stay clear in daylight. From the doorway you notice the thin black strokes and the quiet flat ground.
