About the artist:
Sean Scully was born in 1945 in Dublin. After completing his art studies in London, he moved to New York in 1975. In addition to New York, he lives and works in Barcelona and Munich. In 2007, Sean Scully was appointed a lecturer at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. Sean Scully’s works are based on an artistic approach to vertical and horizontal color stripes and rectangles. Through the use of different techniques and materials, Sean Scully creatively engages with minimalist motifs. While in his early works he used tape to create precise edges, he moved away from this method in the 1980s. At that time he consciously decided to paint the outlines by hand so that they would appear softer and more lively. Brushwork and application are clearly visible, and a dark, earthy palette characterizes most of his paintings. In addition, Sean Scully also creates etchings, lithographs, pastels and watercolors. They all resemble each other in motif and composition. His photographic works also deal with geometric shapes, capturing individual façades, doors, windows and brick walls. In the 1990s, he also created the series “Floating Paintings,” consisting of rectangular aluminum blocks painted with stripes and hung along the longitudinal side.
About the work:
Roland Garros is the traditional home of the annual Internationaux de France; the tennis tournament is worldwide better known as the French Open. This is one of the official posters that were designed and created each year for the Roland Garros tennis tournament.
