Further Information:
A rare limited edition of the portable collection of post-war and contemporary art La Lune en Rodage III. The art works were gathered by Carl Laslzo and included the greatest artists of the time who contributed with important pieces, often marking a turning point in their production and carriers: Enrico Castellani’s work for example is his first documented graphic work and Piero Manzoni's multiple Achrome is the only one produced by the artist.

Gerlinde Beck (1930 - 2006) studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart, among others with Willi Baumeister, and at the same time completed an apprenticeship as a fine sheet metal worker. Her art became known mainly through commissioned works that were exhibited in public spaces and "Art on Construction" projects. The "Klangstrasse", a group of twelve sculptures made of different materials, is her best-known work, which attracted much attention not only in the art world but also in music. Beck was a member of the Deutscher Künstlerbund and GEDOK. Her sculptures have been exhibited in various museums and institutions such as the Kunsthalle Bremen and Mannheim and the Kunstverein Freiburg, Oldenburg and Heilbronn. The artist worked both plastically and created paintings and prints. Main themes of her art were color and light, movement and space as well as sound.
