About the Item

Signed, titled and numbered from the edition of 25. The illusions and reflections in Sietens prints often bring M.C. Escher to mind, but his prints have a distinctive feel all their own. Reflection of real world on a metallic sphere is one of Sietins’ most frequently used motifs. The reality does not always correspond to the reflection. Where it is that reality ends and illusion begins? Guntars Sietins' prints continue to win international printmaking competitions, and he was recently featured in the book Printmaking Beyond the Edge by Richard Noyce. Sietins was born on October 23, 1962 in Kuldiga, Latvia. Since 1986 Mr. Sietins has kept up a full schedule of exhibitions in Europe. Mr. Sietins is also professor of Graphic Art at the Latvian Academy of Art, where he is currently department head. His prints are in numerous museums in Europe. Signed and numbered.
