Description from the seller
An extraordinary and iconic work by Mario Schifano (1934–1998), one of the absolute pioneers of European Pop Art and the Piazza del Popolo School. This work belongs to his famous and highly sought-after series of "Tele/Computerized Photo", manually retouched photographs taken from television screens. Schifano isolates a transitory mediated image, transforming an ephemeral television broadcast into a lyrical and permanent artistic statement through dynamic and energetic strokes of colored enamel paint. A conceptually impactful piece, worthy of a museum, that perfectly reflects Schifano's obsession with contemporary media and visual flows. Its high liquidity and strong demand from collectors make it a top-tier addition to any modern art collection.
The work is archived at the Mario Schifano Works Archive cataloged at the M.S. Multistudio Foundation from 1985 to 1997, Volume V, published on page 314 reference F9097-7149 and of the Telemarket catalog on page 533, of which a color photocopy will be provided. Documents from the Foundation and catalog publication photographs are attached.
The lot will be suitably packed and shipped with affiliated couriers and with online tracking. For this lot, shipments outside the European Community are not made.
