Artwork Details: Artist: After Hans Jean Arp (1886–1966) Title: Sans titre (Untitled) Medium: Lithograph on velin paper Dimensions: 12.5 x 9.75 inches (31.75 x 24.77 cm) Inscription: Signed in the plate and unnumbered as issued Date: 1955 Publisher: Societe Internationale dArt XXe Siecle, Paris, under the direction of Gualtieri di San Lazzaro, editeur, Paris Printer: Mourlot Freres, Paris Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Provenance: From the album XXe Siecle, Nouvelle serie N°5 (double) Juin 1955, published by Societe Internationale dArt XXe Siecle, Paris; printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, 1955 About the Publication: Gualtieri di San Lazzaros XXe Siecle (Twentieth Century) was one of the most influential art journals of the modern era, founded in Paris in 1938 to unite the greatest painters, sculptors, and writers of the 20th century. San Lazzaro, a visionary editor and champion of modernism, believed deeply in the synthesis of art and literature, creating a publication that served as both a scholarly platform and a collectors object. Across its many issues, XXe Siecle featured original lithographs, pochoirs, linocuts, and wood engravings by leading modern masters including Picasso, Matisse, Chagall, Miro, Braque, Leger, Kandinsky, and Calder, printed by premier ateliers such as Mourlot, Atelier Jacomet, and Lacouriere. The double issues of the 1950s reflect a flourishing period of postwar abstraction, sculpture, and avant garde experimentation. Today, XXe Siecle remains an essential reference point in 20th century art history, prized by collectors, museums, and scholars worldwide. About the Artist: Hans Jean Arp (1886–1966), also known as Jean Arp, was a Franco German sculptor, painter, poet, and theorist whose lyrical abstraction and biomorphic forms profoundly shaped the evolution of modern art, bridging Dada, Surrealism, and Constructivism while laying the groundwork for later movements such as Abstract Expressionism and Minimalism. Born in Strasbourg, Arp co founded the Dada movement in Zurich in 1916 with Hugo Ball, Tristan Tzara, Sophie Taeuber Arp, and Marcel Duchamp, creating art that celebrated spontaneity, chance, and the organic rhythms of nature as an antidote to rationalism and war. Rejecting rigid systems, Arp embraced intuition and accident, producing poetic collages and reliefs that seemed to grow naturally, embodying his belief that art is a fruit that grows in man, like a fruit on a plant. In Paris, he became part of the avant garde alongside Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, and Man Ray, all of whom shared his search for a universal visual language rooted in emotion and form. His collaboration and marriage with Sophie Taeuber Arp produced groundbreaking works uniting painting, sculpture, textiles, and architecture, anticipating the interdisciplinary ideals of the Bauhaus. During the 1920s and 1930s, Arps wooden reliefs and plaster sculptures evolved into pure biomorphism undulating, organic shapes that blurred the boundary between abstraction and life itself. His philosophy of natural order influenced generations of artists, from Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth to Ellsworth Kelly, Isamu Noguchi, and Jean Hans Hartung, while his belief in chance as a creative force inspired later innovators like Jackson Pollock, John Cage, and the Fluxus movement. Arps postwar sculptures in bronze and marble embodied serene, monumental simplicity, reflecting his faith in balance and regeneration, and in 1954 he received the Grand Prize for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale. His writings and poetry, like his sculpture, explored themes of unity and growth, expressing a cosmic harmony between humanity and nature. Represented in the worlds greatest museums including MoMA, Tate Modern, Centre Pompidou, and the Guggenheim Arps art remains a testament to the enduring power of organic abstraction. Standing alongside Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, Hans Jean Arp endures as one of modernisms purest and most poetic voices a sculptor of living form whose work continues to inspire artists and collectors across generations. His highest auction record was achieved by Demeter (1960), which sold for 5.825 million USD at Sothebys, New York, on May 15, 2018, reaffirming his status as one of the most visionary, influential, and collectible sculptors of the 20th century.
