Bring the Sublime into Your Space with Barnett Newman’s Be II

Experience the profound simplicity of Barnett Newman’s Be II, a cornerstone of mid-century Abstract Expressionism. This masterpiece represents the pinnacle of Newman's 'Color Field' philosophy, where the canvas becomes an arena of existence. At the heart of this work is his signature 'zip'—a singular vertical line that defines the spatial dimension and invites the viewer into a state of meditative presence. This 75x100 cm (30x40 inches) fine art poster is not merely a reproduction; it is a meticulously curated tribute to Newman's vision of the sublime.

Who was Barnett Newman and why is Be II significant?

Barnett Newman was a leader in the Abstract Expressionist movement. Be II (1961/1964) is part of a series that explores the 'zip'—a vertical band that creates a sense of human presence and metaphysical space within the field of color.

What does the 'zip' represent in Newman's work?

The 'zip' was Newman's unique innovation. Rather than acting as a line on a background, it defines the entire canvas, creating a relationship between the viewer and the void, emphasizing a sense of being 'here and now'.
