Salvatory Solution

Description

With Jim Nutt, Suellen Rocca, and Karl Wirsum, Art Green was an exhibiting member of the Hairy Who. He made very few etchings while studying with Vera Berdich, but those that he did create are memorable and complex compositions that show his early sophistication in multiple-plate printing.
