Information about the work

Known for his refined style and use of large areas of flat color, Alex Katz (New York, 1927) centers his work on the simplicity and elegance of everyday life. His lithograph *Dog at Ducktrap* is a perfect example of this approach. The piece shows a tranquil outdoor scene featuring a dog with long, soft fur, sitting in the tall green grass with its tongue out in a relaxed and friendly manner. The background, reduced to simple shapes and flat colors, suggests a serene landscape of water, hills, and distant trees. The contrast between the detailed texture of the dog and the smoothness of the surroundings enhances the visual strength of the work and reflects Katz's ability to capture the beauty of the simplest moments with a contemporary and luminous gaze.

This lithograph was printed by Styria Studio, Inc. New York and co-published by Brooke Alexander, Inc. and Marlborough Graphics, Inc., New York.

Alex Katz (United States, 1927). He studied at the Cooper Union in New York from 1946 to 1949 and at the Skowhagen School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine. His figurative painting focuses primarily on portraiture, although he also depicts landscapes, flowers, and seascapes.

Considered a precursor of Pop Art, he distanced himself from Abstract Expressionism through large-scale figurative works. He begins with sketches that he reworks and expands upon the canvas, employing the fragmentation and repetition of motifs. His figures appear against abstract backgrounds of flat, bright colors, with an emphasis on gazes, fashion, and other symbols of his era. In the 1980s, he ironically explored the joie de vivre associated with leisure and carefree living.

His first solo exhibition was held in 1954, and since then he has enjoyed both institutional and commercial success. His work is included in more than one hundred public and private collections internationally, including those of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), the Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Centre Georges Pompidou, the Tate Gallery, and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía. He lives and works in New York.
