Lot Essay

« Ce langage abstrait, semi-figuratif, qui jouait de la typographie éclatée et de l’image lacérée, se comportait avec une formidable ironie comme une sorte de peinture d’Histoire ».

"This abstract, semi-figurative language that played with fragmented typography and lacerated images, behaved with a formidable irony like a sort of painting of History."
