Lee Bontecou’s (b. 1931, American) drawings, prints, and sculptures span the subject matter of black voids, cosmic orbits, and anatomical forms. Her consistent, recognizable style has been attributed to a hyperconscious awareness of the post–World War II nuclear arms and space race, coupled with rapid advances in technology. Although best known for her sculptural wall reliefs, Bontecou produced multiple series of prints that includes the work Untitled (1986), created as part of the Universal Limited Art Editions (ULAE) Atelier Project.
