Description

Sam Gilliam’s Lattice: Three Plates (1982) presents a trio of lithograph and etching prints that exemplify the artist’s dynamic approach to colour, form, and process. Executed on handmade paper, each composition showcases Gilliam’s signature interplay of layered tones, gestural abstraction, and experimental printmaking techniques.

The vivid surfaces and fluid structures reflect Gilliam’s ongoing exploration of the boundaries between painting and print. His use of handmade paper enhances the tactile quality and depth of each work, allowing the pigments and etched lines to interact with the irregular textures of the sheet.

These three prints—each individually signed, titled, dated, and numbered—belong to an edition of 33. Produced by Vermillion Editions Limited in Minneapolis, a studio known for its collaboration with leading American artists, the works demonstrate Gilliam’s mastery of colour-based abstraction within the printmaking medium.
