Based in New York, Abney is widely recognised for her vivid, graphic style and her exploration of race, identity, media, and popular culture. Her work is held in major international collections, including the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
Each 36.5cm square UV pigment print is finished with a matte varnish seal and printed on Somerset 410gsm paper. The works were produced in Abney’s New York studios and reflect her innovative approach to contemporary practice.
Werner Freundel, Director at Chorley’s, said:
“This is an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a major body of work by one of the most influential artists of her generation.
Collections of this scale and quality almost never appear on the open market, and demand for Abney’s work continues to grow internationally.
We expect very strong interest from both established collectors and new buyers entering the digital-physical art space.”
