Sam Francis was an American painter and printmaker whose career established him as a key figure in postwar visual arts. Trained at Berkeley, he began painting while undergoing treatment for tuberculosis and, influenced by Abstract Expressionism and artists such as Pollock and Rothko, developed a personal vocabulary marked by intense color, wide fields of white and liquid gestures. Francis’s international career was centered in Europe and Japan: he lived and exhibited in Paris in the 1950s, associated with tachisme, and absorbed references from modern French painting and Zen thought—factors that shaped notable series such as the “open” paintings, monumental murals and his color-based matrix works. A prolific producer in the graphic arts as well, he created numerous prints and monotypes and maintained a lithography studio in Santa Monica. He founded Lapis Press in 1984 and, after his death, the Sam Francis Foundation took on the documentation and preservation of his estate and catalogue raisonné. Institutional and market recognition is broad: his works are held by major international museums and have reached record prices at auction, reflecting the lasting influence of his pursuit of chromatic and spatial expansion.
