Happy Birthday!
Helen Frankenthaler
GATEWAY, #7 of 12, (1982-1986)
Framed within three screens are intaglio prints with etching, relief painting and hand stenciling, done on handcrafted paper. The unique hinged frames are sandblasted bronze, hand-patinated with a variety of chemicals and dyes. Frankenthaler spent three years creating the prints alone using 28 colors, and six years working on the frames.
