“Luana,” a 1982 lithograph by R.C. Gorman, is a monumental figurative study rendered in his most sculptural and abstract mode. A seated woman is depicted in profile, her dark hair visible above a vast, rounded form defined almost entirely through sweeping contour lines in dark ink against a warm cream ground. The upper right background is worked in dense, layered gray-taupe hatching, creating texture and depth that contrasts with the open, luminous surface of the figure. A single bare foot, defined by just a few cursive lines, completes the composition at the lower right. Gorman’s ability to suggest volume and presence through minimal means reaches a peak in this quietly powerful work. An essential acquisition for collectors of Gorman lithographs and Southwest fine art.
