About the Item

Color monoprint with collage. The artist describes this project: Since the 1980s, I have been interested in the possibilities of printmaking to explore serial variations. Each of these prints share the same key imagery but also are uniquely different through the use of marbled rice papers, hand coloring, collage, installation or other alterations. This series of monoprints is a continuation of recent work using details from Japanese woodblock prints.

"Untitled I"

By Barbara Takenaga

Located in Lyons, CO

Color monotype. Barbara Takenaga's latest prints are a series of Untitled hand colored monotypes, which she describes as follows: Making these monotypes was a wonderful new experience for me. They combine a painterly, abstract background with a graphic structure of hard edged, flat forms. Those dark shapes can be read as either positive/foreground space (body silhouettes or curtains) or as negative space that frames a central image (landscapes, columns, creatures). Similarly, the white lines and dots...

Angel (Little Egypt) State III

Angel (Little Egypt) State III

By Barbara Takenaga

Located in Lyons, CO

Color lithograph with gold metallic powder, Edition 15. Barbara Takenaga writes: “About the prints, they’re part of a series of recent Angel paintings — which were influenced by seeing a small painting fragment of angel’s wings by Fra Angelico. I liked the way the feather pattern is similar to the Asian motif of fish scales or waves of water. There is a reference to the natural world, as well as the heavenly, but in an abstract, decorative approach. With the scale change of smaller elements in the center and larger dots on the edge, there is the implication of folded space that moves from near to distant — with some sensation of being pulled toward a far off place. The metallic background is dusted with gold or pearlescent powder over deep orange, which gives the surface some shimmer and color change. The title, Angel (Little Egypt), comes from the colors that are reminiscent of ancient Egyptian collars...
