{"product_id":"eve-barnett-newman","title":"Eve - Barnett Newman","description":"\u003cp\u003eA seminal work of American Color Field painting, featuring a bold red field bisected by a vertical dark band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBarnett Newman produced Eve in 1950, a period during which he refined his approach to the canvas as a singular, unified field of colour. This work is defined by a large, flat expanse of red, interrupted only by a vertical band of dark colour along the right edge. Newman often referred to these vertical lines as zips, which function here to define the spatial boundaries of the composition rather than to represent objects or figures in a traditional sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this painting, the colour acts as the primary subject. Newman sought to remove the distraction of brushwork or gestural marks, allowing the viewer to engage directly with the scale and the chromatic intensity of the surface. By eliminating conventional perspective and narrative elements, the artist forces an encounter with the physical presence of the work. The title, Eve, suggests a thematic connection to creation or origins, a common interest in Newman's practice, where he often drew upon biblical or mythological subjects to frame his abstract investigations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece is characteristic of the Color Field movement, which emerged in New York during the mid-twentieth century. Unlike the action painting of his contemporaries, Newman's work is quiet and meditative. The interaction between the expansive red field and the narrow vertical stripe creates a tension that is both immediate and sustained. The simplicity of the arrangement belies the careful consideration given to the relationship between the colour, the scale of the canvas, and the surrounding space. It remains a clear example of the artist's attempt to create an experience of totality through minimal means, inviting the viewer to contemplate the work without the mediation of familiar imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/no-2-no-7-and-no-2-mark-rothko-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eNo. 2 (No. 7 and No. 2) by Mark Rothko\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/guadalupe-helen-frankenthaler\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eGuadalupe by Helen Frankenthaler\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Barnett Newman","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139273163087,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139286630735,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139286663503,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139286696271,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139286729039,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139286761807,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139286794575,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139286827343,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139286860111,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139286892879,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139286925647,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139286958415,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139286991183,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139287023951,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139287056719,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139287089487,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139287122255,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139287155023,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139287187791,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139287220559,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Eve_Poster_CompositorV1_1792122320127.jpg?v=1792207682","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/eve-barnett-newman","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
