Description: Quathlamba II (1968) is an iconic lithograph by American artist Frank Stella, part of his renowned "V Series." This print exemplifies Stella’s minimalist and geometric turn in the late 1960s. The work features concentric chevron-shaped lines forming sharp angles, creating a dynamic "V"-shaped composition.
The harmonious mustard and bluish-gray tones enhance optical depth and a kinetic visual effect. A prime example of Op Art and hard-edge painting, Stella’s signature style is evident in the hypnotic rhythm created by the contrast between precise lines and flat color fields, immediately capturing the viewer’s attention.
That same geometric rigor and dynamic use of colour extends into Pergusa Three, from Circuits (1983), a large-format woodcut relief on handmade paper inspired by international racing circuits. A very different, art-historical dialogue can be found in A Had Gadya: Front Cover, Illustrations After El Lissitzky's Had Gadya (1984), merging Russian Constructivism with Stella's own postmodern idiom — both available now at Lynart Gallery.
