Aprašymas

A considered survey of prints made in collaboration with master printer Kenneth E Tyler

This publication explores the prints created by American painter and printmaker Joan Mitchell during the final stage of her career, during trips to the Tyler Graphics workshops in 1981 and 1992. Joan Mitchell: Worlds of Colour explores Mitchell's dedication to abstraction and how she translated her approach to painting through printmaking techniques.

Born in Chicago, Mitchell emerged in the early 1950s as a leading figure in the New York School of Abstract Expressionism. From 1955 she lived and worked between the United States and France, settling permanently in Vétheuil, near Paris, in 1968.

Drawn from the National Gallery of Australia's Kenneth E Tyler Collection, the prints made in the last decade of the artist's life highlight Mitchell's exploration of color, shape, and space, and the essays in the volume consider how these elements contributed to her art. Reproductions of the works are presented alongside archival photographs, providing insight into Mitchell's life and practice.
