AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mimmo Rotella (1918–2006)
Dangerous Liaisons
An outstanding work by one of the most important post-war European artists, a pioneer of the décollage technique and a key figure in the Nouveau Réalisme movement. The piece comes from a recognizable series based on torn film posters, which established the artist's international reputation.
Job description
Serigraph collage created based on the original film poster Relazioni pericolose. Through the characteristic gesture of tearing and reassembling paper layers, Rotella deconstructs the iconography of cinema and mass culture, giving it a new, expressive dimension. The work is characterized by strong dynamism, intense color schemes, and a distinctive surface texture.
Details
Technique: Serigraph collage
Dimensions: 100 × 70 cm
Signature: with a pencil, bottom right corner.
Copy: P.A. (artist's proof) – author's copy

Bibliography
Work described and reproduced in a publication.
E. Pontiggia, Mimmo Rotella: Multiple Décollages, Silvana Editoriale, Cinisello Balsamo 2004, p. 35 (illustrated).
Condition
Good – any irregularities and traces directly result from the applied décollage technique and are consistent with the artist's intention.
Collector's notes
Copies marked as P.A. (proof of artist) are particularly valued by collectors due to their direct connection to the artist and limited availability. Mimmo Rotelli's works are part of the collections of the world's most important museums, including MoMA in New York, Centre Pompidou in Paris, and Tate Modern in London. The offered piece, thanks to its signature, foundation seal, and confirmed bibliography, constitutes a fully legitimate, high-quality collectible object.

Attention: I do not send outside the EU.
