ZARINA (B. 1937)

Zarina's minimalist body of work has constantly negotiated the divide between representation and abstraction, and her mastery of various print making processes illuminates the true versatility of the form.

This woodcut is one of the earliest works by the artist to be offered at auction. Interpreted as part of a fence or a closed door, this print also foreshadows the artist’s later work, which dwells on homes and homelands, as well as borders and their arbitrary creation.
