AI-assisted summary
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/Foto Computerizzate,” hand-retouched photographs from television screens. Schifano isolates a transitory media image, turning an ephemeral television broadcast into a lyrical and permanent artistic statement through dynamic and energetic strokes of colored enamel. A conceptually impactful work, 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 premier addition to any modern art collection. The work is provided within an elegant white frame.
The piece is archived at the Mario Schifano Works Archive cataloged at the M.S. Multistudio Foundation from 1985 to 1997, Volume V, page 251, reference F9097-5577, and in the Telemarket catalog on page 630, of which a color photocopy will be provided. The Foundation documents and catalog publication photos are attached.
The lot will be adequately packaged and shipped with approved couriers and online tracking. For this lot, shipments outside the European Community are not made.
