The Minimalist Majesty of Barnett Newman’s Canto XVI

Barnett Newman’s Canto XVI, part of his seminal 18 Cantos lithography series (1963–64), is a profound meditation on space, color, and the human condition. As a pioneer of Color Field painting and Abstract Expressionism, Newman utilized his signature 'zip'—a vertical band of color—not as a line on a field, but as a force that defines and activates the entire composition. This pack of 10 flat postcards allows you to share or display a piece of twentieth-century avant-garde history, capturing the spiritual and intellectual intensity that Newman sought to evoke.
