The Cleveland Museum of Art, gift of Jack and Linda Lissauer in memory of Pearl and Rabbi David Hachen 2020.418 Contemporary Brooklyn-based artist Nicola López explores the concept of place in her work, inspired by a longstanding interest in anthropology. This print belongs to López’s Monuments series, in which she created abstract images based on the urban landscape. Objects from everyday life—here, a television—are presented in forms and settings that monumentalize them beyond their regular use. Nicola López works extensively in printmaking and self-published this print, revealing her experimental interest in intaglio technique.
