2003 Edition of 99 copies + 15 EA +15 HC + 30 copies numebered /XXX. Signed « Arman » and numbered on the gilded bronze. Referenced in Denyse Durand-Ruel Archives under Nr 7698. Referenced at the Arman Studio in New York under NR APA# 7030.03.006. Arman is a Franco-American artist best known for his unique style of found object sculpture known as accumulations. Inspired by the philosophy and aesthetics of Dadaism, he brings together forks, instruments and teapots in display cases. A member of Nouveau Réalisme alongside Yves Klein and Jean Tinguely, among others, he responds to the emergence of Pop art through his own critique of consumption, waste and mass production, particularly in his series "Poubelles" in the early 1960s. For his famous and monumental sculpture "Long-Term Parking" (1982), the artist piles up 60 cars and plunges them into cement, creating an imposing surreal structure. Born Armand Pierre Fernandez on November 17, 1928 in Nice, France, the sculptor, painter and printmaker became an American citizen in 1973. He died on October 22, 2005 in New York at the age of 76.
