LEE BONTECOU
Tenth Stone.
Lithograph on Rives BFK, 1968. 960x570 mm; 37¾x22½ inches, full margins. Signed, dated and numbered 11-33 in pencil, lower right. Printed and published by ULAE, West Islip, with the blind stamp lower left. A very good impression.According to Sparks, "Tenth Stone combines two things Bontecou [born 1931] admired, flowers and airplane wings, in an image that symbolized her fears for the future of the planet. Using the same fantasy--flowers in gas masks--she created similar sculptures in wood and plastic as well as a series of drawings. The lithographic ink in this print has the iridescent quality of silverpoint." Sparks 24.
