Michel Ciry Art

French, b. 1919

Michel Ciry was a French painter, engraver, writer and composer. He was a student at the Duperré School of Applied Arts in Paris from 1934–37. Ciry engraved his first copper in 1935 and started at the exhibition Artistes de ce Temps, at the Petit Palais in 1938. In addition to his personal engraved work, he produced numerous illustrations for bibliophile editions. He created with his friends the international Michel-Ciry engraving prize, which rewards professional and amateur talented engravers.

Study for a Monument in the Heroic/Erotic/Academic/Comic Style Claes Oldenburg

By Claes Oldenburg

Located in New York, NY

This sensuous and playful scene is characteristic of Oldenburg’s printmaking ouevre: a veritable heap of women displaying various expressions of ecstasy and repose. The loose sketches were drawn directly onto the plate by the artist, a master draftsman whose erotic etchings are largely unknown. The composition is based on the drawing: Clinical Study, Towards a Heroic-Erotic Monument in the Academic/Comic Style, 1965, ball-point pen on paper, 20 x 40 in. / 60 x 101.6 cm. *This print was etched in six gorgeous inks, each in an edition of ten: take your pick of color!* Oldenburg had an interest in imaginary monuments: he famously conceptualized works such as “Ball”, an unbuilt monument conceived of in 1967 which imagined two ballcocks – the round mechanism in a toilet tank...
