Henk Kuijpers - 1 Silkscreen - Franka - Tanden van de draak - 1987

This is NOT an original! but a print, a screen print from a page! A very beautiful page and therefore in 1987 we issued a screen print of it, so everyone could see roughly what an original looks like. Franka finally arrives by ship on the island Samak in the Philepines. She walks along the barges on the quay and takes the tea train to Motok City. There it immediately strikes her that everything, yes, absolutely everything is for sale, for a pittance. She cannot resist the temptation and tries on classical Chinese clothing. Yet she actually knows that smuggled loot must be… well, loot. But again she cannot resist the desire to tease Laura a bit with her dragon mania. In between there is the threat of Mai Mai and the police she has bought has mounted a regime around it.

Indeed a poster in screen print: a top page at true size and in the black of the ink drawing.

The winner of this lot also receives, for this auction in a run of 150 unnumbered copies made, a special colored print on A4 format, signed by Henk Kuijpers. The original of this print is also in this auction (see lot 150).
