About the artist:

Arman (actually Armand Pierre Fernandez) was born in 1928 in Nice and died in 2005 in New York. The French assemblage artist was one of the most important members and co-founders of the group 'Nouveaux Réalistes'. Arman attended art school in Nice and in Paris the École du Louvre and the École National des Arts Décoratifs. His object pictures were shown in many European cities. Arman was friends with Yves Klein from an early age. He began dipping objects such as chains, cans, keys, and the like into ink and printing them onto paper. In doing so, Arman increasingly focused on the individual, preformed object. Thus arose wastebaskets or bins with used products of our consumer goods industry. This was followed by accumulations of similar objects, such as radio tubes, gears, or vials—mostly in Plexiglas boxes. Arman treated the given material as a painter treats brush and paint, composing, but also allowing space for chance.

The unique character of Arm an's works lies in the fusion of objects and portraits from the world of music and technology. He masterfully made music visible. In 1964 he received the 2nd Prize at the Tokyo Biennale and in 1966 the Grand Prize Marzotto. In 1968 he was granted a teaching position at the University of California (UCLA). In 1968 he was also represented at the Venice Biennale and the Kassel documenta. His famous paintings and sculptures can be found in all major art metropolises.

About the artwork:

Roland Garros is the traditional home of the annual Internationaux de France; the tennis tournament is better known worldwide as the French Open. This is one of the official posters that were designed and produced each year for the tennis tournament at Roland Garros.
