Original Signed Prints 1965
These original unique colour experiments from 1965 are signed and dated by the artist. Such early superb examples of Pop-Art have been acquired by major collectors and museums - A group such as these Target and Daisy Panel Prints are possibly the last such important early pieces by this artist available anywhere. For a complete catalog contact this site.
During the 1960s Peter Gee moved to the U.S.A. and immediately became an active part of the Pop Art scene. During 1965 he worked on a series of unique experimental colour prints using the exciting and vibrant inks and pigments then being developed and becoming available - these included exceptionally bright day-glo screen-printing inks.
The "Target and Daisy panel" series were the outcome of this important period in his working life. In later years leading up to and subsequent to his death many of the early designs and ideas have been reworked and reprinted in various editions, continuing up to the present day.
Early signed works by this artist have been acquired by major museums and collections in Great Britain and the United States although until a major retrospective exhibition occurs the legacy of this artist cannot be fully appreciated.
The work speaks more eloquently today through the technology of ipads, iphones and backlit screens which allow for the first time the full vibrancy of colour to be expressed although as can be seen in these examples the dynamic flashing of colours in juxta-position in many cases means that the prints must be seen by the naked eye.
Prices for the early signed works are rising sharply which even so are becoming increasingly scarce and difficult to buy.
