Description from the seller

An extraordinary and iconic work by Mario Schifano (1934–1998), one of the absolute pioneers of European Pop Art and of the Piazza del Popolo School. This work belongs to his famous and highly sought-after series of "Tele/Foto Computerizzate", 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. A conceptually impactful work, worthy of a museum, that perfectly reflects Schifano's obsession with modern media and visual flows. Its high liquidity and high 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, and published on page 33 reference F9097-0103. The Foundation documents and catalog publication photos are attached.
The lot will be adequately packaged and shipped with affiliated couriers and online tracking. For this lot, no shipments outside the European Community are carried out.
