Agam275T
Yaakov Agam. The
Fusion Suite. Edition of 200. Serigraphs. Image size is 22"
x 22 1/2" plus margins. The paper size in 27" x 27". Printed in
New York, USA. The suite, displayed in this composite page, was
acquired in 1978. These serigraphs are based on the concept of Agam's
contrapuntal paintings, and are classical representations of Agam's
life work. They demonstrate the concepts of the innovative critical
language Agam's work brought to the art world, illustrating the
changing nature of the universe, based on an appreciation and understanding
of motion and harmony. A viewer, looking Agam's work from different
angles, can identify any number of concurrent visual designs. Art
is virtually created by the viewer's eye as it moves across the
page. The concept is an art work's "constant becoming."
Each original serigraph image is signed and numbered
in pencil. The serigraphs are printed on heavy rag paper which appears
to have a slight wax finish protecting its clean white margins.
The paper has a quality the feel of a light cardboard. The nature
of the paper makes the prints suitable for floating or matting in
a traditional frame, or box. The Fusion Suite is particularly
interesting because it's combined major pieces (imagined superimposed
on each other) aesthetically complete the visual aesthetic - an
artwork simultaneously kinetic and static, the synthesis of Agam's
kinetic theory. The three major pieces from this suite are displayed
directly below: Agam173, Agam274, and the synthesis artwork, Agam275.

Yaakov Agam. Synthesis:
Solfage Fusion 98/200. Serigraph, from the Fusion suite.
Image size is 22" x 22 1/2" plus margins. The paper size in 27"
x 27". The serigraph was acquired in 1978 and is signed and numbered
in pencil. The ink surface is rich, and velvet like. There are no

The paper has a quality and feel of a light cardboard. The nature
of the paper makes the print suitable for floating or matting within
a traditional frame or box. The art image is the final fusion of
two images from the suite, presented above (Agam272 and Agam274).
The upper corner of the left margin has an almost indiscernible
crease, about 1/2" in from the edge. Otherwise the artwork, margins
and image surface, is in pristine condition.
Note: This work is a combination of the two suite
images displayed directly above, Agam273 and Agam274. This synthesis
piece combined with the two preceding images is a classic example
of Agam's aesthetic of interlacing themes and shifting images. See
the composite

Altia. 109/150. Embossed Etching. The paper size is 22" x 15".
The etching was acquired in 1983. The etching is signed and numbered
in pencil. This lovely leaf appears to float off of the page. The
artist has embossed a chop signature at the left bottom of the paper,
just under the image. The image is embossed into the paper allowing
for deep margins, deeper at the bottom than the top and sides. This
arrangement of image design on the paper combined with the 100%
cotton paper's lovely deckled edges makes the work suitable for
framing by floating it in a box as well as framing traditionally
with a mat. This piece makes an especially handsome presentation
when combined with others from the five etching, Foliage,
suite. The artwork, margins and art surface, is in excellent condition.

size is 20" x 16" and the image size is 16" x 11". The lithograph
was acquired with the full suite in l981. The lithograph is signed

ink with exquisite depth of color, and color gradations and drawing
detail, on handsome handmade light yellow paper, with beautiful
deckled edges. The paper on which this art is printed is worthy
of note. Created by Roland Poska, master printer and paper-maker,
it is rich and complex in its combination of unusual color and texture.
It is stunning art in itself. Poska talks about the paper's deckle
edges and explains they too are intended to be evocative of the
messages in the Doyle images. Poska says that for him the paper
mirror's the concept of a rough unfinished part of man's relationship
of man to nature. This handmade paper, similar to that relationship,
looks rough and unfinished. The relationship is a kind of work in
progress. Poska explains this life philosophy and his art paper
saying forces meet and part - like the "deckle", or irregular edge
of the paper. "...Nature is one huge deckle edge...in man's
relations [with it] forces collide...you have to work out a balance...[or]...deckle

Luo Witchdoctor. 69/150. Lithograph. The approximate paper
size is 22" x 30" and the image size is 18" x 26". The lithograph
was acquired with the full suite in l981. The lithograph is signed
and numbered in pencil. The work is a monochrome lithograph, black
ink with exquisite depth of color, color gradations and drawing
detail, on handsome handmade grey paper, with beautiful deckled
edges. The paper on which this art is printed is worthy of note.
Created by Roland Poska, master printer and paper-maker, it is rich
and complex in its combination of unusual color and texture. It
is stunning art in itself. Poska talks about the paper's deckle
edges and explains they too are intended to be evocative of the
messages in the Doyle images. Poska says that for him the paper
mirror's the concept of a rough unfinished part of man's relationship
of man to nature. This handmade paper, similar to that relationship,
looks rough and unfinished. The relationship is a kind of work in
progress. Poska explains this life philosophy and his art paper
saying forces meet and part - like the "deckle", or irregular edge
of the paper. "...Nature is one huge deckle edge...in man's
relations [with it] forces collide...you have to work out a balance...[or]...deckle
edge...". This historically researched presentation provocatively

Catalogue for The Counselors suite. This 20 page color
catalogue displays the images in the suite, their legend sheets,
and the suite's justification page. Text includes historical information

with handwritten anecdotal comments record stages of Doyle's research,
and illustrate information about physical, spiritual, and intellectual
foundations of law. Preliminary and intermediate drawings, color
and monochrome lithograph proofs, and photographs of the final drawings
made directly on the lithograph stones, complete a visual research
record of work process, theories and philosophies. The catalogue
closes with a Doyle biography, list of private and public collectors
and exhibitors, acknowledgments of personal relationships and associations
with renown institutions, and thanks for encouragement and contributions.
