1998

About the Item

Basquiat Paris 1998: Rare vintage original announcement card to the exhibit, Jean-Michel Basquiat Temoignage 1977-1988, Galerie Jerome De Noirmont, Paris, 1998: 6 x 9 inches (folded closed). Good to very good overall vintage condition; contains some hand-writing on inner left area. Unsigned from an edition of unknown. Would look great framed. Original Exhibition Press Release from 1997 (source: Noirmont art production): "... A retrospective-testimony of Jean-Michel Basquiat with a simple and chronological path. Regrouping more than 40 works (drawings, paintings, sculpture) dated from 1977 to 1988, this exhibition aims to introduce to initiated amateurs some never before seen works and permits the general public to better understand the iconography and the personality of this creator... The first room will contain about 10 drawings from 1977 to 1981, the epoch of SAMO. In this exceptional group one will discover the portrait of SAMO, so notorious, yet never exposed, and other creations clearly inspired by comic strips. The main gallery will be exclusively devoted to masterpieces of 1982: Portrait of the Artist as a Young Derelict; Head of a Fryer; Red Scull; Head of the Mandibule. The stairs gallery will show works on paper from 1982 - 1983, affirming once again, if it was still necessary, his perfect mastery of drawing and Leonardo de Vinci´s influence on his anatomy, scientific and technical drawings. On the first floor, a number of works from 1984 to 1988 will be presented, including collaborations with Andy Warhol. These drawings and paintings focus principally on... the iconography of the Black American culture with jazz, boxing, and the symbolic codes of society. The reception will showcase photographs with Jean-Michel; anonymous or illustrated, some never published, they capture his long awaited moments, such as his trip to the Ivory Coast. One will also see exhibition posters. Thus when leaving the exhibition, having seen these authentic testimonies and this assemblage of original works, each one will have the freedom to form his own opinion of the place of Jean-Michel Basquiat in the history of 20th century art."

  • Untitled Zwirner Gallery exhibition poster
    By Yayoi Kusama
    Located in New York, NY
    Yayoi Kusama Offset lithograph poster, 2017 Published by David Zwirner Unframed, with original folds as issued (see photo) Gorgeous Yayoi Kusama offset lithograph poster published by David Zwirner Gallery for a 2018 exhibition. It has natural folds as it was folded in a square, but is otherwise in excellent condition and the folds will frame out This print originally accompanied the monograph "Yayoi Kusama: Festival of Life," published to accompany an exhibition held at David Zwirner, New York, 2017. It was printed in a limited, but unknown edition and has since sold out Yayoi Kusama Biography Yayoi Kusama's work has transcended two of the most important art movements of the second half of the twentieth century: Pop art and Minimalism. Her highly influential career spans paintings, performances, room-size presentations, outdoor sculptural installations, literary works, films, fashion, design, and interventions within existing architectural structures, which allude at once to microscopic and macroscopic universes. Born in 1929 in Matsumoto, Japan, Kusama’s work has been featured widely in both solo and group presentations. She presented her first solo show in her native Japan in 1952. In the mid-1960s, she established herself in New York as an important avant-garde artist by staging groundbreaking and influential happenings, events, and exhibitions. Her work gained renewed widespread recognition in the late 1980s following a number of international solo exhibitions, including shows at the Center for International Contemporary Arts, New York, and the Museum of Modern Art, Oxford, both of which took place in 1989. She represented Japan in 1993 at the 45th Venice Biennale, to much critical acclaim. In 1998, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art, New York, co-organized Love Forever: Yayoi Kusama, 1958–1968, which toured to the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis (1998-1999), and Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo (1999). More recently, in 2011 to 2012, her work was the subject of a large-scale retrospective that traveled to the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Tate Modern, London; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. From 2012 through 2015, three major museum solo presentations of the artist’s work simultaneously traveled to major museums throughout Japan, Asia, and Central and South America. In 2015, the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk, Denmark, organized a comprehensive overview of Kusama’s practice that traveled to Henie-Onstad Kunstsenter, Høvikodden, Norway; Moderna Museet, Stockholm; and Helsinki Art Museum. In 2017-2019, a major survey of the artist’s work, Infinity Mirrors, was presented at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC; Seattle Art Museum; The Broad, Los Angeles; Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto; The Cleveland Museum of Art, Ohio; and the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, Georgia. Yayoi Kusama: Life Is the Heart of the Rainbow, which marked the first large-scale exhibition of Kusama’s work presented in Southeast Asia, opened at the National Gallery of Singapore in 2017 and traveled to the Queensland Art Gallery Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane, Australia and the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nusantara, Jakarta. In 2019, All About Love Speaks Forever, an exhibition "tailor-made" specifically for the Fosun Foundation, Shanghai included more than 40 works by the artist. A comprehensive retrospective of the artist’s work was on view at Gropius Bau, Berlin in 2021, and traveled to the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in 2022. KUSAMA: Cosmic Nature...
