Embrace the Sublime: Canto I by Barnett Newman
Barnett Newman’s Canto I is a masterwork of mid-century minimalism, capturing the profound spiritual resonance of the Abstract Expressionist movement. Originally part of a portfolio of eighteen lithographs created between 1963 and 1964, Canto I explores the limits of color and space through Newman’s signature 'zip'—a vertical band that defines the composition without bisecting it. This museum-quality reproduction brings the intellectual rigor and emotional depth of Newman’s Color Field painting into your curated space.
Museum-Grade Reproduction by RedKalion
At RedKalion, we honor the legacy of the avant-garde through archival-grade materials. This fine art print is rendered on 250 gsm (110 lb) natural white paper. The matte, uncoated finish ensures a non-reflective surface that emphasizes the rich, saturated tones Newman intended, while the 0.29 mm (11.4 mils) thickness provides a tactile weight found only in premium gallery editions.
Sustainably Sourced Elegance
To preserve the integrity of the work, Canto I is housed in a robust black wooden frame crafted from responsibly sourced oak and ash. Measuring 20mm (0.79") in both width and thickness, this frame offers a more substantial profile than standard retail versions, providing structural permanence and a contemporary silhouette. Each piece is protected by shatterproof plexiglass, ensuring your investment remains pristine for generations.

What is the significance of the 'zip' in Barnett Newman's Canto I?
The 'zip' is Newman's signature vertical line that defines the spatial structure of the work. Rather than dividing the canvas, it creates a sense of scale and human presence, inviting viewers to experience the 'sublime' through pure color and verticality.
What distinguishes the Canto series in Newman's career?
Created in the 1960s, the Canto series represents Newman's mastery of lithography. It allowed him to explore subtle tonal variations and the margins of the paper, contrasting his earlier, more massive Color Field canvases with a more intimate, graphic precision.
Is the frame included with this Barnett Newman print?
Yes, this piece comes fully assembled in a premium black wooden frame made from sustainably sourced oak and ash. It includes a professional hanging kit, making it ready to hang immediately upon arrival.
What are the specific measurements of the frame?
The frame features a contemporary 20mm (0.79") profile in both thickness and width. This is significantly wider and more durable than the classic 14mm frames, providing a more authoritative gallery-style presentation.
What type of paper is used for the reproduction?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) museum-quality, natural white paper. It is archival, acid-free, and features a matte, uncoated finish that prevents glare and preserves the depth of the artwork's color palette.
How is the artwork protected during shipping?
Each framed print is shielded by shatterproof, transparent plexiglass. This provides the clarity of glass with superior durability, ensuring your Barnett Newman print arrives in perfect condition and remains protected from environmental factors.
