Spray paint and oil on Light pink construction paper - Dedicated and dated in pencil by artist, verso: dedicated and dated in ink by Eric Freeman, Verso // Heart by Ross Bleckner, created in 1999, is a mixed media work on light pink construction paper. The piece features a red heart at the center, rendered with a soft, organic form using spray paint and oil. Surrounding the heart is a darker rectangular border that contrasts the warm red tones, giving the heart a subtle glow. Bleckner’s use of texture and color highlights the vulnerability and fragility of the heart, both symbolically and visually. The irregular, softened edges of the heart enhance its emotional intensity, evoking themes of love, memory, and impermanence. Dedicated and dated verso by the artist and Eric Freeman, the artwork presents a raw yet tender aesthetic.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
