June is a signed screen print by Bridget Riley, released in 1992 as an edition of 75. One of Riley's Zig / Rhomboid works, June’s individual title contextualises the bright, warm colour palette, which, with its floral pinks and rich blues, evokes summer in full bloom and blue skies.
Across her oeuvre, Riley teases out the different energies inherent in varying tonalities, delighting in the push-and-pull created through the juxtaposition of competing colours, and June is no exception. Being non-representational, Riley’s titles hint at the inspiration behind the conception of her artworks.
In the Zig / Rhomboid collection of works, Riley began to cross her iconic horizontal stripes of her earlier striped works with short diagonal elements: another evolution in her non-representational, abstract art practice. Upon creating this new rhomboid form, Riley claims a “whole new field of relationships opened up”. When first exhibited, many interpreted the forms as painterly strokes, enlarged and formalised, deriving from Georges Seurat, who was a great source of inspiration for Riley. Indeed, the integration of these forms by Riley was in part an attempt to rediscover pictorial craftsmanship.
Bridget Riley, a leading figure in the British Op-Art movement, has captivated audiences with her abstract paintings and prints that challenge visual perception. Born in London, 1931, Riley’s artistic journey evolved from semi-Impressionist beginnings to geometric mastery, significantly influencing modern art. Her groundbreaking artworks, from Movement In Squares to the vibrant Stripes series, explore optical phenomena and colour dynamics, creating mesmerising, dizzying effects. With a prolific career spanning over seven decades, Riley’s innovative designs and perceptual disruptions continue to shape contemporary British art, solidifying her enduring influence in the realm of abstract and modern art.
