Bernard Buffet
Atelier Mourlot - New York (NYC Skyline) by Bernard Buffet

1967

About the Item

Arches Poster Paper - Perfect Condition A+ When The Mourlot Studio opened a branch in New York City, after a successful exhibition organized by the Smithsonian Institute in 1963, it commissioned several famous International artists to create a series of original Lithographic posters to celebrate the event. Bernard Buffet, on the heels of his success with the New York Lithographic album of 1964, was asked to create an original image. The studio was a part of the Westbeth complex, a newly built, city-funded artist residence in the West village. The artist settled on this unusual view of the building while taking a boat ride on the Hudson River. This extremely well balance composition is one of Bernard Buffet’s most sought after lithographs. Ed. 1000. Published by Fernand Mourlot. Ref: Sorlier. 120. Certificate of Provenance: Each individual work of art carefully curated by Mourlot Editions comes with a Certificate of Provenance, signed, dated, stamped, and numbered by Eric Mourlot. This certificate guarantees the origin and authenticity of your personal lithograph. About the Artist: (1928-1999) French Buffet was an Expressionist painter and printmaker. By 1948, he had his first one-man exhibition and received the Prix de la Critique. In the 1950s, he was considered the principal figurative artist in Paris, and during this period, the “misérabilisme” movement influenced him. His work appears in many major museums, including the Tate Gallery in London and the Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris.
