Smithsonian Resident Associates Program 1980 15th Anniversary Poster - Gene Davis

Celebrate a landmark moment in American cultural history with this museum-quality framed art print of Gene Davis's 1980 poster for the Smithsonian Resident Associates Program's 15th anniversary. This vibrant, large-scale work (70x100 cm / 28x40 inches) encapsulates the bold, rhythmic energy of Davis's signature hard-edge abstraction, a defining style of the Washington Color School. The poster, originally created to commemorate the program's role in fostering public engagement with the arts and sciences, is now available as a premium reproduction that honors its artistic and historical significance.

Gene Davis (1920–1985) was a master of color field painting, renowned for his precise, vertical stripes that create dynamic optical effects and a sense of musical cadence. This 1980 piece reflects his mature period, where he explored the interplay of color and scale to evoke emotion and movement. As a key figure in the post-war American art scene, Davis's work bridges abstract expressionism and minimalism, making this print a sophisticated addition to any modern collection.
