Framed 1988 "Opus Nuevo I" textural serigraph signed and titled Opus I in pencil by Venezuelan artist Elba Alvarez (1944-2005), numbered 71 of 100. Featuring dynamic bursts of intense color surrounded by waves of texture, this abstract is large, though lighter weight for hanging due to a cover of plexiglass in a painted wood frame. The frame is black on the outside with several marks on the gold, and the back dust cover has a couple small holes. Frame measures 37" W x 47.5" H x 1" D, with a 29.5" x 39.5" mount and appx. 18" x 22.5" central block. Contemporary artist Elba Alvarez trained in Paris before she moved to the United States in 1968, basing her career there and showing her "cool yet colorful" art worldwide.
