Ten Days — Fine Art

Ten Days by James Rosenquist uses wide colour bands and cut out shapes that the eye reads in a row. The weight sits in the middle band, and the sides stay open. A few hard edges pull the view along the picture.

This fine art print sits on a wall with steady light from a side lamp. The matte paper keeps the colour bands soft, so the marks do not glare. A light frame on a dark wall makes the shapes stand out without crowding them.

On the stairwell wall, the bands line up with the steps when you climb past. From the landing you see the hard edges first, then the open space beside them.
