Aquatint, Spit bite and sugar lift on paper - Signed, Dated and Numbered // Sean Scully’s Red Fold is an aquatint that exemplifies his exploration of geometric abstraction through layered textures and earthy tones. The composition is divided into rectangular blocks of color—muted reds, oranges, blacks, and grays—arranged in a structured, grid-like pattern. The soft, blurred edges of the color fields suggest movement and depth, a hallmark of Scully’s technique that blends the rigidity of geometry with the fluidity of color application. Created using aquatint, spit bite, and sugar lift techniques, the print combines precision with a painterly quality. Signed, dated, and numbered, Red Fold reflects Scully’s interest in the tension between form and emotion, structure and spontaneity.

What is concrete art?
Concrete Art is an art movement founded by the Dutch artist Theo van Doesburg in the 1930s. The movement emphasizes pure abstraction, focusing on geometric shapes and colors without any reference to the natural world or symbolic meaning. Unlike other forms of abstract art, Concrete Art is entirely non-representational and is based on mathematical principles and precise execution. It aims to create universal, timeless works by using simple, clear forms that emphasize objectivity and clarity.
