New York abstract expressionism, colour field painting, Chinese and Japanese art, French impressionism and his own Bay Area roots. After graduating from Cal Berkeley in 1950, Francis moved to Paris and over the next four decades he travelled and studied extensively, maintaining studios in Bern, Paris, Tokyo, Mexico City, New York and Northern and Southern California.
American artist Sam Francis was one of the twentieth century's most profound Abstract Expressionists. Regarded as one of the leading interpreters of colour and light, his work holds references to front cover:
Francis possessed a lyrical and gestural hand, enabling him to capture and record the brilliance, energy and intensity of colour at different moments of time and periods of his life. His pictures embody his love of literature, music and science, while reflecting his deep range of emotions and personal turmoil.
