Biografia
Sam Francis (1923 to 1994) was a Californian painter who began painting while recovering from a wartime injury and moved to Paris in 1950, where his luminous fields of color made him one of the few Americans celebrated on both sides of the Atlantic. His work links second generation Abstract Expressionism with Tachisme and Color Field painting, and his later open compositions, built around large areas of white canvas, influenced painters in Europe and Japan. For the market he offers a broad price ladder: large canvases from the 1950s rank among the most sought after postwar American abstractions, while a deep supply of works on paper and prints trades regularly at auction. In November 2022 a Paris period canvas set his record at Christie's New York.
