Summary

This print comes from the same year (1948) that Pasmore moved to pure abstraction in his art, and as with the first abstract painting is made up of rotating squares and circles. It was used as the poster design for the London Group exhibition of May 1948 which was the first time Pasmore had shown his abstract work. The print was shown later that same year in the first exhibition of the Society of London Painter-Printers at the Redfern Gallery.
