Pierre Soulages - Lithographie No. 22 - 1969
Immerse yourself in the profound simplicity of Pierre Soulages' Lithographie No. 22 (1969), a defining work from the master of "Outrenoir" (Beyond Black). This fine art print captures Soulages' revolutionary exploration of light and texture through pure abstraction, where black becomes a luminous, dynamic force rather than mere absence of color. Created during a pivotal period when Soulages was refining his monochromatic language, this lithograph exemplifies his belief that black is a color of light, capable of evoking deep emotional resonance and intellectual contemplation.
RedKalion presents this museum-quality reproduction on our exclusive Master's Edition archival paper. The matte, uncoated finish in a natural white hue enhances the artwork's tactile depth, mirroring the original's raw, contemplative energy. Measuring 75x100 cm (30x40 inches), this fine art poster is crafted for enduring beauty, printed on-demand to ensure each piece meets our exacting standards.
Artistic Insight & Historical Context
Soulages' work from the late 1960s, like Lithographie No. 22, bridges his earlier gestural abstractions with the later Outrenoir series that would define his legacy. By stripping away color, he focused on the interplay of light on black surfaces, using tools to scrape, brush, and layer ink in ways that create subtle reflections and shadows. This approach challenged traditional Western art norms, positioning black as a source of illumination and emotional depth—a concept that continues to influence contemporary abstract art.
