Woman, Early Stripes, 1968 to be published in a catalog of recent gifts to the Harn Museum, at the University of Florida. As reported in Linea: The Artists' Voice: "The lithographer for this work was the historic Atelier Mourlot, Paris, when they set up shop in New York City, working with artists over a period of two years. Dorfman had his own studio, with an assigned master print assistant in 1968. During that time, he developed friendships with Jose Cuevas, Robert Rauschenberg, Alex Katz, and Francois Gilot, who were all working on editions there. Dorfman completed a total of five separate commissions at Mourlot." This print was commissioned by Kennedy Galleries, NYC.
