// Peace by Jack Youngerman is a 1973 silkscreen print, part of a limited edition of 150. This artwork features a bold composition of abstract shapes in red, white, and blue. The central white form is bordered by sweeping red and blue shapes, reminiscent of a flame or a stylized dove, both symbols of peace. The strong color contrast and minimalistic design give the piece a sense of movement and vitality. Youngerman’s work often explores organic forms and symbolic representations, and Peace uses its simple yet powerful palette and shapes to evoke harmony and unity, aligning with the print’s title.

What is Colour Field Painting?
Colour Field Painting is an abstract style characterized by large areas of a single color or simple, solid colors. The term was first used in the 1950s to describe the work of three American Abstract Expressionist painters—Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still. Their work emphasized the emotional power of color and the creation of vast, meditative spaces through expansive color fields.
