P07443 AT SEA JAPAN 1980
Inscribed ‘J Bartlett’ and ‘27/58’ bottom right on back of last sheet, and ‘A’ to ‘F’ on back of each sheet (left to right)
Woodcut and screenprint on six sheets, printed by Simca Print Artists in Tokyo, published by them with the artist in New York, 22 1/2×100 1/4 (57.1×254.5)
Purchased from Paula Cooper Gallery (Grant-in-Aid) 1981
The artist worked in Japan with Japanese Ukiyo-e (woodblock printing) craftsmen to make the twelve elliptical shapes that run across all six sheets; screenprinting was then used for the rest of the image (about 90 screens in all). The print is related to a large painting of the same title.
