Preludia IV 1959

"Preludia IV", a 1959 print by Czech artist Jirí Balcar, is a striking example of abstract expressionism. This black and white print utilizes a gridded background which is intersected by dark, expressive lines, creating an almost architectural feel. The use of white space and black lines allows for a sense of depth and movement within the artwork, engaging the viewer with its bold and striking imagery.
