Lot 0063: ABSTRACT AMERICAN OIL PAINTING BY SAM L FRANCIS

41 reviews

Sam Lewis Francis, American, French, 1923 to 1994, oil painting on canvas depicting an Abstract Expressionist composition. Signed lower right. Sam Francis is known for Splatter-stain imagery painting, graphics. An Abstract Expressionist painter known for his brilliant coloration and splotch like shapes, Sam Francis became one of the big name modernist artists of the second half of the 20th century. He was much influenced by Clyfford Styll and Mark Rothko. Unlike the creations of many of the Abstract Expressionists and the Bay Area Figurative painters, his work was light and airy and increasingly decorative. One of a kind artwork.
