John McLaughlin: The Tamarind Prints

Inspired by his lifelong study of Asian art, he instilled in his art a sense of stillness and the Japanese notion of the void. Between 1962 and 1963, McLaughlin was invited to make prints at Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles. He produced a series of seventeen separate edition prints comprised of flat adjacent and layered rectangular bars of muted color similar to his paintings. This installation includes the entire group of seventeen prints McLaughlin produced at Tamarind.
