Vintage 1979 exhibition poster for Al Held: Paintings 1978 at the André Emmerich Gallery.
The poster reproduces Held’s 1978 painting C-B-1, a complex geometric composition featuring interlocking circles, angular architectural forms, cubes, and linear structures in saturated blue, brown, gray, red, yellow, and white.
Printed along the lower edge are the exhibition text “AL HELD • PAINTINGS 1978 • ANDRE EMMERICH GALLERY,” the copyright line “© 1979 Poster Originals Limited #251,” and the identification of the reproduced painting as “C-B-1 1978. Acrylic on canvas, 6 x 7 feet.”
Al Held was an important American abstract painter known for his large-scale geometric compositions and complex explorations of space, perspective, and architectural form. His later works are especially recognized for their crisp linear structures, overlapping forms, and dramatic sense of depth.
