We believe this to be a later 1960s #LibbieMark work due to its canvas (instead of Masonite) substrate, and restrained use of collage. Here she leaves some painted areas to stand on their own – bright blue at left, bright green at lower right, and pale yellow at upper right – without the heavy emphasis on overall texture seen in her early works.Mark concentrates the collaged materials mostly in the center and lower right. A close look at the surface reveals crumpled and torn bits of paper, worked into or laid on top of the paint, as well as a very unusual three-dimensional element that appears to be a piece of sponge or foam(??). Pops of color – magenta, intense blue, and a blue-green dry brush texture at lower right – add further energy to this vertical #AbstractExpressionist composition.This collage painting was exhibited in Mark’s second posthumous solo gallery show at #BerryCampbell in NY: “Libbie Mark: Abstract Expressionist,” June 4–July 10, 2026.Image: Untitled Collage Painting, ca. 1965. acrylic, foam, and paper collage on paper, mounted on canvas, 16 1/8 x 12 1/8 in.

We recently posted this #LibbieMark painting because of its gorgeous gold and rust tones, like the brilliant fall leaf color here in the northeast. Let’s take a closer look at this today…Early on, we had speculated that this undated #AbstractExpressionist collage painting was probably from the late 1950s. At this time, Mark produced at least 3 other large square paintings that are dated (she rarely used this format). So it seemed to be a transition from a splatter painting style seen in a few of her works on paper from this period, into a later style that incorporated collage. However, with more thought and increasing familiarity with her work, we now believe that this is from the later 1960s, when Mark’s use of collage became more refined and selective. Here she leaves significant, flat painted areas to stand on their own – bright blue at left, deep gold in upper right and rich rust at lower right. Mark then concentrates the cut, crumpled, and torn collaged paper in an upside down V-shaped arc, embellished with a swath of bright white and drips of deep black.This artwork was exhibited in Mark’s first posthumous solo show “Art of the Abstract Mark: Libbie Mark’s Collage Paintings and Other Works, 1950s–1960s,” January 18–February 25, 2022 at the @NationalArtsClub. It is featured in the 56-page exhibition catalogue, which contains 27 full-page color reproductions, two essays, a chronology, and additional illustrations.

We believe this untitled collage painting to be a later 1960s Abstract Expressionist work by #LibbieMark due to its relatively large size, canvas (instead of Masonite) substrate, and restrained use of collage. Here Mark leaves significant painted areas to stand on their own - light gray at upper left, dark pink at lower left, and blue in the right half - without the heavy emphasis on overall texture seen in her early works. Here, she concentrates the collaged materials in a line down the middle and in the center left. A close look at the surface reveals an intricate pattern of graphic black brushstrokes, cuts or slashes into the surface, smaller dashes of brighter colors, as well as multiple paper elements worked into the paint; their torn edges reveal newsprint. Mark was a talented colorist, with a unique and unexpected instinct for what combinations achieved maximum visual effect.This piece was exhibited in Mark’s first posthumous solo show “Art of the Abstract Mark: Libbie Mark’s Collage Paintings and Other Works, 1950s–1960s,” January 18–February 25, 2022 at the @NationalArtsClub in New York.
