Published on the occasion of his exhibition at the Lefebre Gallery in New York, this limited edition work is hand-numbered 141 and boldly signed by the artist in green marker on the title page. The folio contains a series of vibrant, high-saturation offset lithographs characterized by Ting’s iconic neon-fluorescent palette and \"splatter\" expressionism. Each plate is a masterclass in Pop Art sensibility, featuring Ting’s avant-garde poetry intertwined with explosive color. Printed in Denmark by Rosengreen Litografi, this portfolio represents a pivotal moment in Ting's career as he bridged the gap between traditional Chinese ink motifs and Western psychedelic modernism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Artist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWalasse Ting was a boundary-defying artist born in Shanghai who became a central figure in the New York art scene of the 1960s and 70s. A member of the \"CoBrA\" movement and a close associate of Sam Francis, Ting is best known for his exuberant use of color and his eroticized depictions of women and nature. His works are held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Tate Gallery in London.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications and Dimension\u003c\/strong\u003es\u003cbr\u003eArtist: Walasse Ting (1929–2010)\u003cbr\u003eTitle: Green Banana\u003cbr\u003eDate: 1971\u003cbr\u003eMedium: Signed Limited Edition Lithograph Portfolio\u003cbr\u003eAuthentication: Signed and Numbered 141 in green ink\u003cbr\u003eDimensions Closed: 11” x 14.5”\u003cbr\u003eDimensions Open: 22” x 14.5”\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Lefebre Gallery \/ Rosengreen Litografi\u003cbr\u003eEra: 1970s Pop Art\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe portfolio is in good vintage condition. The interior lithographic plates remain exceptionally bright with no evidence of fading to the fluorescent inks. There is minor age-appropriate wear to the outer cover and along the spine\/creases, consistent with a soft-cover folio of this age. The pages are crisp and free of foxing or tears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigners Note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a high-octane \"designer piece.\" The neon colors provide an incredible punch for a modern interior. While the folio is a complete work of art, these plates are frequently framed individually as a cohesive gallery wall. The provocative text and \"Action Painting\" splatter style make this a definitive conversation piece for a sophisticated contemporary space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rare opportunity to own a signed, numbered artifact from one of the most colorful figures in 20th-century art.
