Swiss painter and sculptor (1925-1991). He is best known for his sculptural machines or kinetic art, in the Dada tradition. Interesting original graphic colored ink art work by Tinguely, highlighted with several color stickers and toned tape on an off-white 12.5 x 10 card, signed on the right side, “Tinguely.” Framed to an overall size of 16 x 13. In very good condition, with scattered toning and soiling, and a bisecting vertical fold.
Tinguely’s “living sculptures”—gigantic and sometimes self-destructing creations—changed the 20th century art world. If this illustration was the first step in one of those creations...well, you’ve got to wonder how he was going to pull together a bayoneting soldier, an owl, a couple of horses, and a hodgepodge of morphing shapes and figures into one cohesive thought! Given the thought process shown here, it’s understandable why, as an artist, Tinguely became frustrated by painting and the finality of such artwork, once stating “This is basically why I took to movement. Movement allowed me to escape this state of petrifaction.” A desirable, albeit bizarre, graphic from one of the founders of art’s New Realism movement. RRAuction COA.
