Robert Motherwell (American, 1915–1991) Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival, 25th Anniversary, 1991 Lithograph and screenprint on Coventry rag paper Edition of 800 Printer: Trestle Editions Ltd., New York Publisher: The Artist

This striking work was created by Robert Motherwell to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival. Executed in 1991, the composition exemplifies Motherwell’s powerful use of bold gesture and abstract form, juxtaposing dynamic black brushstrokes against a vivid red field and fragments of musical notation. The interplay of calligraphic expression and symbolic references to Mozart’s music underscores Motherwell’s lifelong dialogue between visual abstraction and cultural history. Printed by Trestle Editions Ltd. in New York on Coventry rag paper, the work was produced in a limited edition of 800 impressions. As one of the final projects of the artist’s distinguished career, it stands as a synthesis of Motherwell’s painterly intensity and refined graphic sensibility. Both a celebration of music and a testament to Motherwell’s legacy within Abstract Expressionism, this piece remains a highly collectible print that bridges fine art and cultural commemoration.
