George Woodman (1932 - 2017) is a celebrated modern artist whose works hang in the Modern Museum of Art and has exhibited extensively in the USA. This is a rare original print (19.5” x 27”) from a gallery show of his art at the Spectrum Gallery in NYC fall of 1968. Most likely at

this point a one of a kind rarity. It is hand signed and dated by Woodman. The image is one of his most iconic designs from that period. This print is in fair condition with some wear and blemishes, I have not altered the photos to show the condition, however it is still bright, intact and very

presentable. The frame is average and should most likely be replaced. A true original rare offering of this master of the 20th century. George Woodman was a photographer and painter whose career has spanned over 60 years and included forays into diverse visual media. He was Professor Emeritus at the University of Colorado in Boulder where he taught painting and the philosophy of art. He was an influential figure in the Colorado art scene being

associated for many years with Criss-Cross Art

Communication and one of the founding members of the seminal Spark Gallery. Woodman's work has been exhibited throughout the United States, Mexico and Europe including "19 Americans," Guggenheim Museum,

New York, 1981; "Pitti Rivisitato: Fotographie di George

Woodman," Palazzo Pitti, Florence, 1997; "Imagenes de Tiempo, Sensibilidad y Sombra," Museo del Chopo, Mexico

City, 1999; "Photographs of George Woodman," Amethyst Gallery, Chennai, India, 2002; "Camera Obscura Photographs," Grand Arts, Kansas City, MO, 2004. In 2006

he had an exhibition at Galerie Clara Maria Sels in

Dusseldorf; a retrospective of 40 years of painting at the

Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts in Omaha, Nebraska

in 2007, and an exhibitions with accompanying books at

Galleria Bagnai in Florence in 2010 and 2012. In the late 80s, Woodman's work with pattern developed into

compositions in ceramic tile, resulting in major

commissions in Detroit, Michigan; Denver, Colorado; and

Buffalo, New York. Woodman has received fellowships

from the National Endowment for the Arts and The Bemis

Project, and received the National Artist Award from the

Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Aspen, Colorado. His work

is in the permanent collections of The Museum of Modern

Art, The Guggenheim Museum, The Whitney Museum of

American Art, and the Brooklyn Museum, among others.

He has published critical essays and catalogue essays plus

four books: "Museum Pieces" (Lo Specchio d'Arte, 1996);

"The Further Adventures of Pinocchio," with poems by

Edwin Frank (Lo Specchio d'Arte, 2004); "How a Picture

Grows a World," with poems by Iris Cushing (Galleria

Alessandro Bagnai, 2010) and "Metaphysics is to

Metaphor as Cartography is to Departure" (Galleria

Alessandro Bagnai, 2011). Woodman lived half of each

year in New York and the other half in Antella, Italy.
