Lithograph in colors, on Somerset paper // Robert Motherwell's Three Figures, created in 1989, is a limited edition lithograph printed on Somerset paper, measuring 55 by 40 inches. The artwork showcases Motherwell's abstract expressionist style, featuring bold black forms against a vibrant red background. The black shapes, reminiscent of silhouettes or shadows, are organic and gestural, suggesting movement and emotion while remaining ambiguous. The intense contrast between the red and black emphasizes the drama and power of the composition, evoking a sense of tension and presence. The title, Three Figures, invites viewers to interpret the forms as human-like entities, though Motherwell’s approach leaves their identities and relationships open to interpretation. The piece highlights his mastery of using color and form to create powerful emotional and visual impact, characteristic of his contributions to the abstract expressionist movement.

What is Process Art?
Process Art is an artistic movement and creative approach where the focus is on the act of creation rather than the final product. The term process in this context refers to the various stages of art-making, including gathering, sorting, associating, and organizing materials and actions. This movement emphasizes the artistic journey and the human expression involved in creating art, rather than the finished piece itself. Process Art is driven by inherent motivation, intentionality, and the rationale behind the actions, viewing the creative process as the true artwork.
