Why are works from the 1960s–1970s the rarest and most valuable?
Period Zero
Works created between the late 1950s and the 1970s are directly linked to the ZERO movement, the most important moment of his career.

Original techniques
In these years Aubertin developed his most iconic series:
Allumettes, Clous, Monochromes Reds, Dessin de feu.

Rarity
Production was limited, often experimental, and many works are today in private collections or museums.
For this reason, works from 1960–1975 are difficult to find on the market.
