About The Work
Though James Rosenquist experimented with sculpture, he found that painting and prints were the best formats for his collaged imagery. This lithograph, created as a benefit print for the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, uses the vibrant colors, depiction of shiny surfaces, and strong graphic details that Rosenquist is known for. The title is derived from his interest in the Spanish explorer who landed around Tampa Bay, Florida, near one of Rosenquist's studios. Cabeza de Vaca was eventually captured by Native Americans, who dubbed him a sorcerer.
