Sol LeWitt’s work explores the near infinite possibilities of color and line. This linocut is is from LeWitt’s Color Bands series in which mesmerizing curves and lines play on the optical effects of adjacent colors. LeWitt was a self-proclaimed conceptual artist who believed that his finished artworks served as concepts rather than as inherently valuable objects. For Color Bands, he composed a set of drawings and measurements that were executed by a master printmaker.
