AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Paul Kostabi - In Joy and Sadness - Mixed media on paper - 2020
DETAILS OF THE WORK
Artist: Paul Kostabi (United States).
Title of the work: "In Joy and Sadness".
Period: 2020.
Technique and materials: Mixed media on straw paper.
Dimensions: 30.4 x 22.7 cm.
Signature: Signed at the bottom center. Signature on the back, with title and year, place.
Conditions: Excellent. No structural defects (photos are part of the description). The work has never been framed.
DOCUMENTATION
Certificate of authenticity from Galleria d'Arte Piero Della Francesca. The artist's authentication on a photograph will be delivered to the buyer on the artist's next trip to Italy (imminent).
DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK
We offer at auction a beautiful small sheet of high quality, created by Paul Kostabi. The work comes directly from the artist's studio in New York.
Our gallery is proud to be one of Paul Kostabi's reference points in Italy: we handle a wide selection of his creations, ranging from monumental formats (up to over 2 meters) to medium and small sizes, including, in addition to works on canvas, works on paper and historical pieces from the 1990s and 2000s. The absolute guarantee of this painting is certified by the authentication on photographic proof issued and signed directly by the master.
BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES AND CRITICISM ABOUT THE ARTIST
The artist is unanimously regarded as the last great representative of New York graffiti of the 1980s: in his career he has exhibited in the same galleries as masters such as Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring, also collaborating in a two-person project with Little Angel Ortiz (LA2), Haring's long-time assistant. His works are today held in prestigious institutional collections, notably the Guggenheim Museum in New York, and in numerous other museums around the world.
In addition to painting, Paul Kostabi has a monumental history in the music scene: he founded the band White Zombie, performed with Marky Ramone, and is the brilliant designer of the title "Use Your Illusion" for the famous Guns N' Roses album (whose cover was illustrated by his brother, Mark Kostabi).
SHIPPING AND PACKAGING
Packaging: We guarantee professional, rigid, and customized reinforced packaging designed to preserve the complete integrity of the artwork during transit, protected from shocks, folds, and moisture.
Courier: Tracked, fast, and secure shipment via express courier.
Shipping notes: The shipping costs, which may seem slightly higher than average, reflect the special care we take in making the packaging and in choosing reliable couriers. The timeframes listed on the platform are approximate. We generally ship within the indicated terms, sometimes even earlier. However, it is possible that during periods of heavy traffic or if issues arise (for example, strikes), shipments may be delayed by a few days. In such cases, we usually keep the buyer constantly informed about the order status and keep the package ready to be shipped on the first business day. If the shipment falls on a Friday, we postpone the shipment to Monday to avoid risky storage in warehouses over the weekend.
Customs and Export (Extra-EU): For buyers residing outside the European Union, shipping may require the technical time needed to obtain the Free Circulation Certificate (Export License) from MiC (Ministry of Culture). Any customs duties are the buyer's responsibility.
Invoicing: Professional seller. The work will be accompanied by a fiscal receipt (or electronic invoice, available on request by sending your details at bid submission).
Framing and glass: The frame, if present, is part of the sale but should be considered a courtesy, so no claims will be accepted about its condition. Conditions are always described in detail in the description. If glass is present, it will be included in the sale only if the lot is collected in person by the buyer at our gallery. If shipping is chosen, the glass is always removed and is therefore never considered part of the sale.
