Donald Duck Meets Mondrian

Eduardo Paolozzi, Kelpra Studio, Editions Alecto · 1967 · color screenprint on wove paper ·  Accession ID  2018.143.48
The image shows abstract shapes and lines, including a black stand-like structure at the top and the outline of what looks like a pair of pruning shears below it. The composition combines a tripod with a crank and the shears encircle a pink, crumpled texture resembling folded fabric. The abstract elements suggest a mechanical-organic interaction related to gardening or mechanical work, possibly implying a collage or mixed-media concept.

Tool Box 2

Jim Dine, Lynton R. Kistler, Editions Alecto · 1966 · color screenprint with adhered label on wove paper ·  Accession ID  2017.148.19
The image features a series of diagonal lines and curving shapes intersecting to form a dynamic wave-like pattern. The abstract artwork evokes the appearance of a densely woven textile or the rippled surface of a body of water in motion. The overlapping lines and shapes create intricate patterns, similar to those found in nature or a busy cityscape. Earthy tones are visible within the lines, contrasting against the predominant green hues and adding depth to the composition.
