Restore 1968

"Restore" is a 1968 abstract painting by Sam Gilliam. This work is representative of the artist's signature style of colorful, gestural, and expressionistic brushstrokes on unstretched canvases. Gilliam's work often explored themes of color, form, and the nature of painting itself, and this work is a testament to that exploration, creating a dynamic and immersive experience for the viewer. The work's title suggests a sense of renewal and rejuvenation, perhaps reflecting the artist's own creative process.
