About the Item

In Plum, Charles Eckart transforms the softground etching process into a field of rich, layered texture. Deep reds, violets, and browns weave together in a dense tapestry of organic forms, evoking foliage or the pulsing rhythm of nature seen up close. The composition blurs the line between landscape and abstraction, inviting the viewer to experience color and movement as intertwined sensations rather than separate subjects. Abstract print from a series inspired by ground cover and vegetation. Signed, titled, and numbered #1/10 done with soft ground etching. Charles Eckart was born in Oakland, California and grew up in Yosemite Valley. He is a painter who started etching with his own press in 1966. The etching has always paralleled the various phases of his painting development. After focusing on the figure for many years, his work changed to landscape after he moved from San Francisco to Point Reyes in 1985. Eckart's work has developed from early expressionist figurative images to the current abstracted landscapes, reflecting a strong gestural style and an emphasis on texture and energy. The most recent etchings, the Ground Cover series, are taken from direct observations of the intimate landscape. They could be called painter's prints because they are created more closely to the way a painting is constructed: by building up layers of pigment.

The term, "L'Art Informel," was coined by the French critic, Michel Tapi, to connote "without form." The negation of traditional form, a radical break from established notions of order and composition, was particularly suited to a cultural environment born out of the circumstances of post war Europe where abuse of morals and fascist ideology had led to such horror and destruction.
