The artwork titled “Red-Orange from the Suite of Twenty-Seven Color Lithographs” was created by Ellsworth Kelly in 1964. This piece is part of the Hard Edge Painting movement and belongs to the abstract genre. It is part of a series known as “Twenty-Seven Color Lithographs.”
In this artwork, a striking red-orange shape dominates the visual field against a contrasting white background. The form consists of two semi-oval ends connected seamlessly, resembling a geometric abstraction. Characteristic of Hard Edge Painting, the piece utilizes sharp, clean edges and a uniform color palette to emphasize clarity and simplicity in design. The minimalist yet bold composition exemplifies Kelly’s mastery in balancing form and color.
