Lot 64 Geneviève Asse. Atlantique I. 1993. Kaltnadel …

Atlantique I. 1993. Kaltnadel und Aquatinta in Blau auf festem, leicht strukturiertem Velin. 24,6 x 25,2 cm (57 x 38 cm). Signiert, datiert und bezeichnet "H.C.". Punktuell auf Unterlage montiert. - Vereinzelt ganz leicht angestaubt, verso kleine Bleistiftannotation, insgesamt sehr gut und ausgesprochen schön. Ganz ausgezeichneter Druck von zwei nebeneinander und durch geringen Abstand angeordnete Kupferplatten, mit deutlich eingeprägten Plattenrändern und breitem Rand, oben und unten mit dem Schöpfrand.

Konkrete Kunst – Mason 177. - Exemplar hors de commerce außerhalb der Auflage. - Asse wächst an der französischen Atlantikküste, auf der Rhuys-Halbinsel auf und greift ab den 1960er Jahren in ihrem Werk das Blau der Kindheit fortwährend in ihren Kompositionen auf. Ebenso charakteristisch ist in ihren Darstellungen eine mal breiter, mal schmaler gesetzte Vertikale, die einem öffnenden Streifen am Horizont gleich, die Unendlichkeit der Küste assoziativ hervorruft.

Concrete Art – Drypoint and aquatint in blue on strong, slightly structured wove paper. Signed and indicated "H.C.". Spot-mounted to underlying mat. - Isolated hardly dusted, verso small pencil annotation, all in all very good and impeccably nice. Very superb impression from two copper plates, arranged next to each other and with small distance, with clearly impressed plate marks and wide margin, deckle edge at top and bottom. - Copy "hors de commerce" aside the edition. - Asse grows up on the French Atlantic coast, on the Rhuys Peninsula, and from the 1960s on she continually involves the blue of childhood in her works. Equally characteristic in her depictions is a vertical line, sometimes wider, sometimes narrower, which, like an opening strip on the horizon, evokes the infinity of the coast.

Startprice: 1000 €
