Gina Pane
First Project of Silence - Photolithograph with Hand Notes by Gina Pane - 1970

1970

About the Item

First project of silence is an original artwork realized by the contemporary artist Gina Pane in 1970. Black and white photolithograph mounted on cardboard. Original title: Premier project du silence Hand-signed and dated on lower margin. Artist's proof I/I. Hand written dedication to Carmen Martinez. Good conditions except for some light foxings on theright margin. Gina Pane's most dangerous work is not part of the actions but, curiously, of the projects of silence of 1970: the artist climbs with his bare hands a steep and unstable wall of the Ury sand quarry, near the forest of Fontainebleau. The usual colors of the actions have been reversed: the white sand and the artist dressed in black, a dot lost in the immensity of a ghostly landscape. Gina Pane was born in 1939 in Biarritz, France and spent most of her life working between Milan and Paris, where she died in 1990. She trained at the École Beaux-Arts in Paris and was associated with Edmee Larnaudie’s Atelier d’Art Sacré [Studio for Sacred Arts] from 1961 and 1963. From the 1970s onwards, Pane became a defining figure of the international Body Art movement with her ‘actions’ – a series of highly choreographed events in which the artist subjected herself to intense physical and mental trials. Today Pane’s work is displayed in public collections.
