Magnolia I
Charles Donker Dutch
Not on view
Charles Donker is one of the foremost contemporary Dutch printmakers. He is a member of a group called De Luis (The Louse), a group of graphic artists who since the 60s have been making works in a surrealist or heightened realist idiom. He made three prints of magnolias between 2007-09. In this fifth state of the etching, he set the flowers against a dark background that shifts from dark to light; it evokes the gently shifting colored backgounds of Japanese woodcuts.
