Elevate Your Space with Sam Francis’s Abstract Masterpiece

Experience the profound depth and rhythmic vitality of Around the Blues, a seminal work by the American Abstract Expressionist Sam Francis. This exquisite 70x100 cm (28x40 inches) framed art print captures the lyrical abstraction and vibrant palette that defined Francis's career. Known for his unique synthesis of European Tachisme and American Action Painting, Francis utilizes a sophisticated interplay of blue hues and intentional white space—conceptually influenced by the Japanese principle of ma—to create a sense of boundless energy and light.

Was Sam Francis part of the Abstract Expressionist movement?

Yes, though he is often categorized under Lyrical Abstraction. His work bridges the gap between the raw power of Action Painting and the atmospheric depth of Color Field artists.
