About the Item
Lithograph on vélin paper. Paper Size: 15 x 11 inches. Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered, as issued. Notes: From the folio, Derrière le miroir, Poètes, peintres, sculpteurs, N° 119, 1960. Published by Aimé Maeght, Éditeur, Paris; printed by Mourlot Frères, Paris, 1960. Additional notes: Excerpted from a Christie’s, New York lot essay, The life span of Derrière le Miroir was thirty-five years. Publication began in 1946. Aimé Maeght, initiator of Derrière le Miroir, had already made few attempts to start publications illustrated with fine printed lithographs in colours in the years prior to the launch of Derrière le Miroir. The name, Derrière le Miroir was suggested by Jacques Kober, manager of Galerie Maeght. The gallery had opened in 1945; the first number of Derrière le Miroir was released a year later. For this first issue Geer van Velde was invited to create lithographs to illustrate the publication. The lithographs in the first issue was printed by Mourlot, Paris. The first three issues of Derrière le Miroir were unsuccessful for Maeght as far as the edition size—the initial print-runs were far too large. From 30,000 for the first issue, the number was taken down to 10,000 for numbers two and three, until Derrière le Miroir number four was published in an edition of 1500. Maeght instituted a policy whereby unsold issues were recycled and used for the fabrication of new paper for the coming editions—this served to both conserve resources and also usually result in ultimate edition sizes far less than 1,500. With number four, the permanent format for Derrière le Miroir was established. Lithographs in colours were key; text was limited to comments on the featuring artist's exhibition taking place in the Galerie Maeght, and this catalogue format was defining to Derrière le Miroir. Galerie Maeght took on the leading role in Paris and presented all main artists including Braque, Matisse, Chagall, Léger, Bonnard, Chillida and many more. So too did Derrière le Miroir. The idea of a magazine was meanwhile still on the mind of Aimé Maeght. He found an insert as a solution. Two, and later four, pages of art review were inserted from 1952 onwards. In 1968 this find had ripened to independency and the dream of Aimé Maeght was now a tangible fact named l'Art vivant. Derrière le Miroir was on it's own again. Over 250 issues in a row. At that point publisher Aimé Maeght wished to make a mark with the publication of an hommage to all who once contributed to the magazine which came in the form of issue number 250, but was delayed by the death of Aimé Maeght. It was published after number 253 in 1982 and became a tribute to Aimé and Marguérite Maeght and 35 years of friendship with artists and poets. The era of Derrière le Miroir was closed with that final publication.
PABLO PALAZUELO (1915-2007) was a Spanish painter and sculptor. Early in his career, Palazuelo joined Galérie Maeght, where was represented alongside Joan Miro, Marc Chagall, and Alberto Giacometti, an association that has continued for some fifty years. He went on to receive the Kandinsky Prize in 1952. His attention became focused on the nature of "form" itself rather than on what it represented. In 1953 his investigation into form led to his discovery: Trans-geometría-the rhythms of nature translated into plastic art. This new way of seeing was initially expressed in his Solitudes series shown in his first solo exhibition in 1955. Ascendente no. 2, his first sculpture, appeared in 1954. In 1962 that his exploration of the qualities of space through his metal sculpture began in earnest, and his two-dimensional drawings became transformed into their three-dimensional counterparts. Conflict between large, flat, colorful forms characterized the series entitled Onda, Onfalo and Tierra, exhibited in 1963, and indicated a significant change in the direction of his art. In 1969 Pablo Palazuelo returned to Spain, where he continued to probe the mysteries of form through his paintings, sculptures, writings and research. He began to work in a 14th-century castle in Monroy, near Cáceres in 1974. During this time he captured the phenomenon of transformation, from its origin to its cyclic end, in his Monroy series. The appearance of "signs" in his El número y las aguas series in 1978 marked another level of his inquiry into "the moment of formation." Palazuelo's Yantra paintings, exhibited in 1985, represented diagrams of two-dimensional force and structures of three-dimensional force, which constituted figures of conception. Constantly changing lineal rhythms characterized his Nigredo, Anamne and Sinesis series, which were exhibited at the Galería Soledad Lorenzo in Madrid. Since 1955 Palazuelo has held twenty-three solo exhibitions, as well as numerous group exhibitions in France, Spain and throughout Europe. Palazuelo continued to explore the potentialities of form in his Sydus series. In 2008 Palazuelo’s painting, Virtus Marin VI sold for 416,852 USD at Christie's Madrid, setting a world record for the artist.

Pablo Palazuelo
Pablo Palazuelo was one of the most significant Spanish abstract artists of the 20th century. He originally studied architecture at the University of Oxford but soon turned to visual arts. His work focused deeply on geometry, transformation, and the spiritual dimension of form. In 1948, he received a grant from the French Institute and moved to Paris, where he engaged with avant-garde circles and became influenced by geometric abstraction, Eastern philosophy, and alchemy. Style and Work: Early influences include Paul Klee and Bauhaus theory.
In the 1950s, he developed what he called “geometric transformations”, using abstract forms to explore metaphysical ideas.
From 1969 onward, he expanded into sculpture, giving three-dimensional form to his visual language.
He also created prints and worked on artist’s books. Awards and Recognition: Kandinsky Prize (1952)
Spain’s National Prize for Plastic Arts (1999)
Gold Medal for Merit in the Fine Arts (2004) Legacy: Palazuelo's work is held in major institutions such as the Museo Reina Sofía (Madrid), MACBA (Barcelona), and numerous international collections. He is celebrated for blending science, mysticism, and art through his unique abstract language.
