Widely-recognized for his abstract artworks that evoke speed and city structures, Thomas Canto continues to push the boundaries of his geometric compositions with an all-new series. Evoking the rhythm of urban spaces, Canto’s latest pieces spotlight seemingly endless motifs that remind viewers of the dense cityscapes of Hong Kong or New York City. The artist recently teamed up with Paris-based Print Them All on a lithograph edition inspired by an original artwork from the project.

Entitled ‘Urban Symphony,’ the 70 x 90-centimeter lithograph was crafted using three colors printed with the age-old Marinoni press. Each print arrives signed and numbered by the artist. The edition will release this July 24 at 6 p.m. CEST on Print Them All’s website. Only 99 units have been made.
