These multi-media prints by pioneer painter and sculptor Frank Stella are striking for their illusory effect of three-dimensionality. The Waves series illustrates the epic nautical tale of Melville’s Moby Dick through eclectic printing methods, collaged elements, and hand-coloring. The classic American novel captured the artist’s attention between 1986 and 1997, inspiring a generous array of works in a variety of mediums, each embodying the themes that Stella so admired. The series is a testament to a great artist and American original who came before him.
