Iberia 1949

"Iberia" is a 1949 print by American artist Veva Porter. It is a vibrant abstract work featuring a composition of geometric shapes and flat, bold colors, characteristic of the post-World War II artistic movement. Porter’s work often showcased architectural inspiration, and this print, with its stacked and overlapping forms, suggests a cityscape, possibly referencing Spain or the Iberian Peninsula. The artist’s signature style is evident in the use of color and strong graphic lines, which create a sense of movement and energy. The print's flatness and lack of depth are characteristic of a style known as "hard-edge abstraction."
