About the Item

Set of 3 etchings and aquatints in colours by Marino Marini "Triade", 1976-1978 73,7 x 57,5 cm Copy 4/90 Edition of 125 Marino Marini (Pistoia 1901–1980 Viareggio 1980) - Hardly any other modern artist is so closely connected with the theme of the ‘horse and rider’ as the internationally established Italian sculptor, painter and printmaker. After the experiences of war, it became the model of his tragic world view: The restless, rearing animals with their falling riders are Marini’s symbol for the existential questioning of humanity. In his works on paper and prints, the sculptor renounces any evocation of three-dimensionality. The forms of bizarre silhouettes of humans and animals are bound in their two-dimensionality and reduced to a few lines and surfaces. Nevertheless, in the ingenious interplay of expressivity, abstraction and bold yet balanced composition of form and colour, an impressive dynamism and expressiveness unfold.

  • Trichromatic Flower-piece, Richard Hamilton multi color flower still life
    By Richard Hamilton
    Located in New York, NY
    According to Gesine Tosin, Richard Hamilton irritated contemporary critics in the 1970s with a series of works -- romantic images of flowers, still lifes and landscapes, interspersed with scatological motifs. "Once exhibited, the critics regarded the paintings as evidence either of a kinky sexual aberration or an early onset of senility." (Hamilton 1982, p.79. ) Trichromatic flower-piece is one of these works, which questioned the categories of high and low art through its appropriated imagery. In the words of Richard Hamilton: “The Shit and Flowers series was was inspired in a sense by Barcelona, walking on the Ramblas where thousands of postcards are displayed. (…) I bought three pictures of flowers. I took them back to Cadaqués and began to play about with them, at first by putting a little paint on the surface.” According to Andrew Kim Tyler: “Working at Atelier Crommelynck, Paris in 1973-4, Hamilton used a traditional still life subject, a bouquet of flowers, to pursue his interest in the combination of photographic images with planes of color and hand-drawn aspects, but subverting the image with addition of a large turd. Perversely he set out to produce by manual means an etching with the characteristics of a commercially made reproduction resulting in Trichromatic flower-piece.” In addition to the edition of Trichromatic Flower-piece, Hamilton printed...
