MARIO YRISARRY Evolution (3rd International University Choral Festival), 1972

This first edition serigraph by Yrisarry was created to announce the Third International Choral Festival at Lincoln Center in 1972. Referenced on pages 52 and 53 of the Lincoln Center Posters book, this piece is likely an above-the-edition print from the original signed and numbered run of 108, as it contains no text.

This print exemplifies the artistic mastery of silkscreen printing, a technique that thrived in the 1970s, with artists like Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, and Roy Lichtenstein utilizing the medium to create bold, dynamic works with striking visual appeal. The vibrant colors, clean lines, and rich textures of this piece showcase the beauty of serigraphy, which allowed artists to achieve unparalleled depth and intensity in color reproduction.
