Untitled (Mask) , 2020 is a new signed limited edition silkscreen print by visionary contemporary artist Adam Pendleton. Each print from the exclusive edition of 50 is enclosed in a bespoke portfolio, and accompanied by a special hardback edition of Adam Pendleton’s new monograph published in the Phaidon Contemporary Artists Series. This compelling image represents one part of a four-part work by Pendleton named Untitled ( Mask ) , 2019. For this series of Mylar works, Pendleton creates collages from material found in books and from his own writings and drawings, silk-screening them onto sheets of transparent film. Untitled ( Mask ) features a photocopied image of a mask from the Dan people of Liberia. Translated onto a clear substrate and layered with repetitive markings, the mask, several times removed from its source, hovers between transparency and opacity.
