Celebrate a pivotal moment in American cultural history with this museum-quality framed art print of Gene Davis's iconic 1985 poster, commissioned for the Smithsonian Resident Associates Program's 20th anniversary. This vibrant, large-scale work (70x100 cm / 28x40 inches) captures the energy and innovation of the late 20th-century art scene, making it a statement piece for any modern interior.

Gene Davis, a leading figure of the Washington Color School, was renowned for his bold, rhythmic stripe paintings that explored color perception and optical effects. This poster exemplifies his signature style, using dynamic vertical bands of color to create a visually engaging composition that feels both structured and spontaneous. The piece not only commemorates an important institutional milestone but also reflects the era's embrace of minimalist abstraction and public art.

At RedKalion, we specialize in archival-grade reproductions that honor the original artwork's integrity. This print is produced on 250 gsm (110 lb) matte, uncoated, natural white paper—a premium, FSC-certified sustainable material chosen for its durability and ability to render colors with exceptional clarity. The paper's 0.29 mm (11.4 mils) thickness ensures a substantial feel, ideal for fine art displays.

The artwork is expertly framed in a black wooden frame crafted from responsibly sourced oak and ash wood, with dimensions of 20mm (0.79") thick and wide—wider than the classic 14mm (0.55") frame for a more pronounced, contemporary presence. It features shatterproof plexiglass to protect the print from dust and damage while maintaining optimal visibility.
