From the 1972 "Homage to Tobey" edition, this is Mark Tobey's "Flame of Colors" - a color lithograph on Arches paper. Transworld Art of Geneva was the publisher. There were 150 in the edition, but this is an HC (Hors Commerce) print selected by the artist and not originally meant to be sold, that found its way to the market.. They are typically available only directly from the artist and are scarce sought-after. It is pencil-signed on the lower right.
Tobey's work can be found in museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), Tate, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Whitney Museum of American Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., Louisiana Museum of Art, Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA), Dallas Museum of Art, Museo Reina Sofia, Art Institute of Chicago, Moderna Museet, Stockholm and others. This particular litho is in the Smithsonian's collection along with other prominent ones.
Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans.
