FREE FLOAT
Product Description
By Dale Chihuly
Three-color intaglio/lithograph with handwork
37" H x 25" W
Edition of 175; signed in paint and numbered in pencil
Printed by Mahaffey Fine Art, Portland, OR, 2009/2010
During a 1990 trip to Tokyo, Chihuly was reminded of the Japanese fishing floats he used to collect on the beach as a kid in the Pacific Northwest. Not too long after, Chihuly began the Float series, which is the largest piece of glass Chihuly creates in terms of volume. The first lithograph to feature the Float series, Free Float is a three color print in which four additional layers of handwork are added creating both texture and depth. The red interior is accentuated with acrylic paint in fluorescent magenta and a bright iridescent red pearl. Spirals of silver are layered with Chihuly custom black forming the body of the float and a striking red signature finishes the print. Free Float is a perfect balance of the energetic lines and bold colors often found in Chihuly’s unique drawings.
Price includes shipping and handling; each unframed print is shipped via overnight delivery, but please allow 2 to 3 days for order processing.
