Donald Sultan, who rose to prominence in the 1970s as part of the “New Image” movement, is known for elevating the still life tradition through deconstructing his subjects — flowers, daily objects, insignia, idle factories – into basic forms. He is also known for employing industrial materials such as enamel, roofing tar, aluminum, and spackle to push boundaries and create texture. "Reds and Blacks," from 2020, depicts a series of red poppies with enamel inks, flocking, and tar-like texture.
