Grapefruit

Tal R’s woodcut Grapefruit is dominated by a tree abundant with large, colourful fruit. The multicoloured print radiates summer and warmth., Tal R has dedicated three colours to the dynamic linework, keeping the background black and integrating the white of the paper to create additional contrast.
The multi-coloured motif was created from the same woodblock, in a technique called ‘reduction cut’. For artists, this carving method requires a particularly strategic approach: sections of the wood panel are carved away gradually, and the entire edition is printed in the first colour before the artist continues to work on the same panel. Once the artist starts carving for the next colour, he can no longer return to the first colour to make corrections.
