Zeitgenössische Kunst – Originalzeichnung für den Musiker und Sänger Gérard Dole. Mit Dedikation. - Das zeichnerische Werk von Robert Crumb gilt als eines der einflussreichsten und eigenwilligsten der Comicgeschichte. Es verbindet eine obsessive psychologische Selbstbefragung mit einer schonungslos kritischen Beobachtung der westlichen Gesellschaft und ihrer Neurosen. Cover und Porträts für Künstler wie Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, Frank Zappa, Grateful Dead, Artie Shaw, Bo Carter und Blind Boy Fuller. Das bekannteste Werk ist das Cover von Cheap Thrills (1968) von Big Brother and the Holding Company mit Janis Joplin. Crumbs Arbeiten sind geprägt von Retro-Ästhetik, satirischem Humor und detailreicher Linienführung. Oft verwendet er nostalgische Typographien, betont Körperlichkeit und soziale Typen und verbindet so visuelle Elemente des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts mit Ironie und subkulturellem Witz. Seine Arbeiten sind heute in Museen (u. a. im MoMA, New York) ausgestellt und gelten als Paradebeispiele für die Verschmelzung von Comic- und Musikgeschichte.

Contemporary Art – (Self-portrait. For Gérard Dole.) Original drawing. Fiber pen in black on offset paper.Signed. In: Robert Crumb. De l'underground á la Genese. Exhibition catalog Musée d'art Moderne de la ville Paris, 2012. - Well preserved and with clear, sharp contours. Original drawing for the musician and singer Gérard Dole. With dedication. - Robert Crumb's drawings are considered some of the most influential and idiosyncratic in the history of comics. They combine obsessive psychological self-questioning with a relentlessly critical observation of Western society and its neuroses. Covers and portraits for artists such as Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, Frank Zappa, Grateful Dead, Artie Shaw, Bo Carter, and Blind Boy Fuller. His best-known work is the cover of Cheap Thrills (1968) by Big Brother and the Holding Company featuring Janis Joplin. Crumb's works are characterized by retro aesthetics, satirical humor, and detailed lines. He often uses nostalgic typography, emphasizes physicality and social types, and thus combines visual elements of the early 20th century with irony and subcultural wit. His works are now exhibited in museums (including MoMA, New York) and are considered prime examples of the fusion of comic and music history.
