ELLSWORTH KELLY (AFTER) Sample Portfolio.
Portfolio with complete text and 10 color offset lithographs, 1970. 235x161 mm; 9 1/4x6 3/8 inches (sheets), full margins, loose as issued. Printed by Blair Litho, Los Angeles. Published by Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles. Original paper folder. Very good impressions.
This set was used to promote Gemini G.E.L.'s recent printing of Kelly's lithographs, the first to be produced by the workshop. The original lithographs were derived from Kelly's 1967-70 paintings, which departed from his previous work relying on curvilinear shapes. See Axsom 61, 63 and 65-70.
