Variant III

1966

Josef Albers (American (born Germany), 1888–1976) Printed by Sirocco Screenprints, Inc., New York Published by Ives-Sillman, Inc., New Haven, Connecticut

The nesting squares and rectangles of carefully calibrated color that occupied Josef Albers during the 1960s and 1970s were perfectly geared to screenprinting. Albers was a primary focus of the Ives-Sillman firm, which published numerous books about his work and his art theory as well as limited-edition screenprints.
