Serpentine Galleries Alex Katz Ariel 3, by irl1 on Jan 30, 2021 14:17:28 GMT 1, Serpentine Galleries
Alex Katz Ariel 3
1-color woodcut printed on Sommerset White 300gms
18 x 15.75 Inches (46 X 40 cm)
Edition of 75
Hand signed and numbered by the artist
£1,833 + VAT
Ariel 3 illustrates his distinctive portrait style, through the flatness of colour and fluidity of line, exemplifying his life-long quest to capture the present, fleeting moment in paint. Katz draws parallels between his approach to painting and his interest in poetry, both equally concerned with stripping away unnecessary detail to leave only the essential information. Regardless of their scale, Katz has described his paintings as ‘environmental’ in the way in which they envelop the viewer, the intention can be felt with Ariel’s gaze.
Alex Katz has generously donated this limited edition to the Serpentine Galleries on the occasion of the Serpentine's 50th anniversary.
All proceeds directly support the Serpentine's multiple strands of programming and most importantly during this time, the delivery of our civic engagement projects.

On the contrary, he's in his ninth decade and it's good to see him this prolific still. These recent prints will have no effect on his market growth, which has continued to increase in recent years. (I don't think NAE publishes his prints, they are one of the authorised suppliers. Most recent ones are by lococo). IMO still very undervalued compared to one of his contemporaries, Hockney.
