// Raw War by Bruce Nauman is a lithograph created in 1971 that starkly presents a bold commentary on conflict and violence. This artwork features the words RAW and WAR in intense, glowing red-orange letters, almost like neon signs, against a dark, shadowy background. The letters are layered and mirrored, creating an effect of disorientation and ambiguity, as if reflecting the cyclical and chaotic nature of war. Nauman’s choice of stark colors and contrasting light emphasizes the visceral impact of these words, inviting viewers to reflect on the brutal simplicity and tragic repetitiveness of war. Limited to an edition of 100, this print encapsulates Nauman's provocative style and his ability to convey powerful messages through minimalistic yet impactful design.

What is ‘light and space’?
The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
