Serigraph on Saunders Watercolor paper, signed and numbered in pencil Edition: 50 - Paper Size: 77 x 53 inches - featured in the Museum of Art-Bates College Catalog entitled, The Hartley Elegies, from their ground breaking exhibition, back in 2005 - Printer: Bob Blanton, Istvan Kosbor, and Tom Little, Brand X Editions, Ltd. New York - Publisher: Park Granada Editions Tarzana, California - Ref: Sheehan 145 // The Hartley Elegies: The Berlin Series - KvF III by Robert Indiana, produced in 1990, is a vibrant serigraph from Indiana's tribute to the painter Marsden Hartley. This work blends symbolic and patriotic imagery, evoking Hartley's time in Berlin and his deep connection to German culture. Dominated by bold colors—red, yellow, black, and white—the composition features a central circular motif encircled by the text Ich bin ein Berliner and Der Amerikanische Maler, linking the work to both Berlin's history and Indiana's American identity. Additional elements such as numbers, letters, and abstract forms create a dynamic, almost heraldic aesthetic. This limited edition print, with Indiana’s signature and edition number, reflects the artist's fascination with identity, symbolism, and the crossover of American and German influences.

What is Hard Edge Art?
Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
