*Marisa* (2017) is a woodcut and linoleum cut by Alex Katz, measuring 21 5/8 x 65 3/8 in ; 54.9 x 166.1 cm. Edition of 42 plus 12 AP. This work is part of Katz's Portraits series, drawn from his longstanding practice of depicting the people of his world — artists, dancers, writers, and cultural figures — with the same precise, affectionate intensity he brings to all his figurative work. The portrait editions are among the most collected works in his print production. Alex Katz (b. 1927, Brooklyn, New York) is one of the most significant American figurative artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. His prints are held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Tate Modern, and over 100 institutions worldwide. Works from the Portraits series are among the most actively traded in the contemporary prints market, with recent auction results at Christie's, Phillips, and Sotheby's confirming sustained collector demand.
