Elevate Your Space with Jasper Johns' Cicada ULAE 219

RedKalion is proud to present a museum-quality reproduction of Jasper Johns' Cicada ULAE 219, a seminal work that showcases the artist's mastery of the 'hatch' motif. This piece represents a pivotal moment in American contemporary art, where Johns transitioned from recognizable icons like flags and targets to more abstract, rhythmic patterns that challenge the viewer's perception of surface and depth.

This fine art print captures the intricate, vibrating energy of the original 1981 lithograph. The cross-hatching technique, characterized by groups of parallel lines that intersect at various angles, creates a dense, organic texture reminiscent of the exoskeleton or the persistent, rhythmic sound of the cicada itself. By utilizing our premium Brushed Aluminum DIBOND®, we enhance the industrial and intellectual rigor of Johns' vision, providing a modern tactile dimension to this historical masterpiece.

The RedKalion Archival Standard

At RedKalion, we believe a Jasper Johns aluminum print should be as enduring as the artist's legacy. Our process involves a 3mm (0.12") durable Aluminum DIBOND® base with a sophisticated brushed silver finish. The horizontal grain adds a dynamic, metallic shimmer that comes alive as lighting conditions change. Where the original work features white space, the brushed aluminum grain shines through, creating a stunning interplay between matte ink and raw metallic texture.

  • Matte Finish: A glare-free surface that ensures the intricate hatch marks remain visible from any angle.
  • Premium Material: Rigid 3mm DIBOND® provides a modern, frameless look that is both lightweight and incredibly durable.
  • Vibrant Accuracy: Direct-to-substrate printing ensures color fidelity and archival longevity.
  • Ready to Hang: Each piece includes a specialized hanging kit tailored to your location for effortless installation.

Choose this museum-quality reproduction to bring a touch of academic sophistication and mid-century avant-garde aesthetic to your home or office. This is not merely a print; it is an archival masterpiece designed to endure.
