JEAN ARP "DE LA FAMILLE DES ÉTOILES" LITHOGRAPH, 1965

$3,000

Jean Arp, also known as Hans Arp (1886-1966), was an impressive contributor to the avant-garde movement of the 20th century. Arp was active during the crucial years that shaped European Modernism.

Caviar20 has a strong interest in sculptors who are simultaneously active printmakers. We believe that prints are an accessible introduction to an artist's three-dimensional world, and Arp perfectly embodies this combination of mediums.

Arp worked in various European cities during important moments in the development of artistic movements. However, he is particularly renowned for his association with both Dada and Surrealism, from the end of World War I until the 1930s. As one begins to explore his oeuvre, it is remarkable how he is also one of the earliest artists to embrace abstraction. 

Caviar20 recommends exploring MoMA's large holding of his work to see how early and radically he was exploring abstraction.

Executed in a hypnotic palette, "De la Famille des Étoiles" is a paradigm of Arp's minimalist amoeba-like designs.
