Set of 6 etchings // Lynda Benglis’ Set ANCHOR (2010) is a dynamic etching, part of a limited edition series of 37. This artwork is marked by an intense interplay of blue, black, and subtle hints of yellow, layered with expressive, swirling strokes that create a sense of energy and motion. Benglis' use of bold, gestural lines and textured layers reflects her sculptural approach to printmaking, capturing a tactile quality within a two-dimensional medium. The composition appears both spontaneous and deliberate, with its turbulent forms inviting viewers into a contemplative exploration of movement, depth, and abstraction. Known for challenging traditional boundaries in art, Benglis continues to emphasize physicality and material exploration in her work.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
