Untitled 1974

This 1974 work by American Abstract Expressionist painter Sam Francis (1923-1994) showcases his signature style of bold, vibrant color and gestural brushwork. The painting features a central yellow square framed by a black outline, which is further encased in a larger, slightly off-center square. The background is a white canvas with small splashes of color, creating a dynamic and energetic composition. Francis's works often explore themes of color, light, and space, inviting viewers to experience the interplay of these elements on a purely visual level. This untitled work is a prime example of his artistic vision.
