Elevate Your Space with Alma Woodsey Thomas's Rhythmic Masterpiece
Experience the vibrant energy of Alma Woodsey Thomas's 'Wind and Crepe Myrtle Concerto' (1973), a definitive work of the Washington Color School. This fine art print captures the rhythmic, pulsating dabs of color that Thomas became world-renowned for late in her career. As the first African-American woman to have a solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, Thomas transformed her observations of the natural world into abstract symphonies of light and movement.
A Legacy of Color and Light
In 'Wind and Crepe Myrtle Concerto,' Thomas utilizes her signature 'Alma's Stripes' to evoke the swaying movement of trees and the shimmering effect of sunlight through leaves. This 1973 piece is part of her late-period 'Concerto' series, where she sought to translate the auditory beauty of music into a visual language of color. At RedKalion, we curate these museum-quality reproductions to ensure that the depth and vitality of the original 75x100 cm canvas are preserved for the modern collector.
