In partnership with Pontone Gallery, Friedrichs Pontone invites you to a celebratory weekend of star-gazing. Join us Friday, June 20 from 5–8 pm for a special reception in the presence of the artist, celebrating the launch of The Zodiac Universe.
PRE-ORDER YOUR LIMITED EDITION CHRIS RIVERS PRINt HERE.
Each edition can be inscribed with a date of your choosing - whether it’s a birthday, a memory, or a special moment in time.
Two prints are available in this collection: Zodiac Starmaps and Zodiac Landscapes, each offering a personal connection to the stars. Your chosen print will be personalized with a date of your choice, within the calendar range of your selected zodiac sign. We’ll contact you after your purchase to confirm the exact day.
Zodiac Starmaps are adapted from Rivers’ sold-out solo exhibition Universal, a project that saw the artist explore the symbolic language of astrology through twelve richly imagined paintings. Each work wove together elemental signs, planetary references, metals, and star patterns, layered with Rivers’ signature cosmic abstraction and gilded detail. Now, for the first time, these pieces are available as fine art prints, allowing collectors to own a piece of the original series.
Zodiac Landscapes continue Rivers’ longstanding fascination with space exploration and solitude. These works return to the figure of the lone astronaut, now positioned on the surface of an imagined zodiac planet, gazing toward the constellation that defines their sign. Echoing the dreamlike stillness of his previous sole-subject compositions, these prints offer a more introspective view - an internal universe of reflection and wonder.
