Experience the Sublime: Barnett Newman's Canto II
Barnett Newman, a titan of Abstract Expressionism and a pioneer of Color Field painting, sought to create art that transcends the decorative, aiming instead for the metaphysical. Canto II is a seminal piece from his 1963-64 lithographic portfolio, '18 Cantos'. This fine art print captures the stark, emotional resonance of Newman's signature 'zip'—a vertical element that creates a sense of scale and invites the viewer into a profound state of contemplation.
At RedKalion, we believe such a masterpiece deserves an equally masterful presentation. This 75x100 cm reproduction is not merely a poster; it is a meticulously crafted artifact designed to bring the intensity of Newman's vision into your personal collection. By utilizing the Master's Edition archival paper, we ensure that the interplay of form and space is rendered with the same gravity intended by the artist.

What is the historical significance of the '18 Cantos' series?
The 18 Cantos (1963-64) represented Newman’s first major exploration of lithography. They allowed him to experiment with the margins of the paper and the 'zip' in a new medium, creating a rhythmic, musical sequence of visual space.
What does the 'zip' represent in Barnett Newman's work?
The 'zip' is a vertical line that Newman used to define the spatial structure of his paintings. Rather than dividing the canvas, the zip creates a human scale and unifies the composition, evoking a sense of presence and the sublime.
