Arman
Rare sculpture "Pubelle de Tubes" by Fernandez Arman, 1993

1993

About the Item

Born in Nice in 1928, Armand Pierre Fernandez (1928 - 2005) showed a precocious talent for painting and drawing as a child. (Inspired by Vincent van Gogh, he signed his early work with his first name only; he retained a printer’s 1958 misspelling of his name for the rest of his career.) Arman is best known for his unique style of found-object sculpture. Inspired by the philosophies and aesthetics of Dadaism, the artist gathered forks, instruments, and teapots which he staged within vitrines. “I specialize very much in… everything,” - Arman told an interviewer in 1968. Today he is regarded as one of the most prolific and inventive creators of the late 20th century. His work had a strong influence on Pop Art. A close friend of Andy Warhol, Arman was spending a lot of time in New York and moved there in 1960d. He adopted destruction as a strategy for creating something new—slicing, burning, and smashing objects such as bronze statues and musical instruments to mount on canvas. Arman’s work is in the collections of such institutions as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, California, The Detroit Institute of Arts, Everson Museum of Art, Bellevue Art Museum in Washington, Boca Raton Museum of Art, the Tate Gallery in London and the Centre Pompidou in Paris.
