Description
Georges Braque (1882-1963) - Lettera amorosa. G. Braque - R. Char. Galerie Edwin Engelberts, Geneva. Printer Mourlot, Paris. 64x40cm. Original poster, lithograph. Not canvas-backed. Condition A. Perfect condition. Produced for the exhibition devoted to the artist's book Lettera amorosa, this poster illustrates the collaboration between Georges Braque and René Char, a major figure in twentieth-century poetry, close to Surrealism and the author of a body of work marked by high formal standards and profound philosophical implications. Braque, co-founder of Cubism alongside Pablo Picasso, is one of the most influential artists of modern art, renowned for having profoundly renewed the representation of pictorial space and for his late research into the sign, the bird and the illustrated book. Their collaboration on Lettera amorosa is one of the most accomplished examples of the dialogue between poetry and the visual arts in the post-war period, bringing together two major figures in French art.
