✅ SOLVED Jefferson Airplane Print Vintage? Please Help

[chadkeath]

Hi and thank you in advance. I am trying to figure out what I have here. I am not sure if it is a print to promote Jefferson Airplane? Has that psychedelic color to it thst was popular during that time. It is just very interesting, has a signature to at bottom right. Maybe someone in this discussion can shed some light. Any thoughts?

Nothing to do with Jefferson Airplane. It’s a ‘religious’ pop-art print by Corita Kent (b.1918-d.1986) also known as Sister Mary Corita… “an artist with an innovative approach to design and education. By the 1960s, her vibrant serigraphs were drawing international acclaim. Corita’s work reflected her concerns about poverty, racism, and war, and her messages of peace and social justice continue to resonate with audiences today.”

Your looks like it’s signed “Corita” and would be worth closer examination to see if it’s an original.

You're welcome. Just a bit more:

The work is (obviously) called “Come Alive!” and was originally produced in 1967. An original should be 13.5 × 23 inches (34.3 × 58.4 cm) screenprinted by hand (as a serigraph) on paper. Your signature appears to be in the customary place but the work could still be a mass-produced non-original copy, which is rather more likely.

An original with collector provenance back to its acquisition in 1967 was sold at auction by Wright of Chicago in January 2019 for $3,250 (hammer price).

This one I got from my friend. Was her moms. Was a big time collector of art. She had pieces from Warhol and Haring I believe his name is. I got this for free as nobody knew who or what it was. I got it thinking it was a concert poster. This is 13x23 inches. I took a loop at signature and is ink. Im hoping I got a find.
