Rare Ellsworth Kelly 1965 Mid-Century Modernist Lithograph Poster "Vivian Beaumont Theater - Lincoln Center," framed in a vintage acrylic box frame by Art Services, Melrose Ave, Los Angeles. This oversized, bold, minimalist print exemplifies Kelly's signature hard-edge abstraction and color field technique. A highly collectible piece of modern art ephemera, this lithograph was issued in a limited unnumbered edition of 500 by the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York, commissioned for the opening of the Vivian Beaumont Theater and published by The American Federation of Arts' List Art Posters program.

The composition is striking and pure: geometric, vibrant, and entirely ahead of its time-representative of Kelly's minimalist aesthetic and influence on 20th-century American art. An essential addition for collectors of Modernist, Mid-Century, Minimalist, and Color Field art, especially those seeking vintage works by iconic American artists.

Ellsworth Kelly (1923-2015) is recognized internationally for his pioneering work in minimalism, abstraction, and color theory. His works are held in major collections including MoMA, The Whitney, LACMA, and Tate.

Condition: In good vintage condition with some surface scratches to the acrylic consistent with age. Poster shows mild edge wear.
