| Descripción Histórica: | |
| Highlighting the physical beauty of the violin, Arman aligns varnished, wooden
violin covers against a black background. The violins, placed in linear fashion
next to each other, create an undulating pattern that contributes to an overall
rhythmical effect. The piece is not entirely geometric; while Arman stacks the
violins neatly next to each other, they are not entirely proportional. Some
tilt slightly to the side while others are placed the tiniest bit higher or
lower than their their neighbors. This subtle differentiation adds a sense of
uniqueness to the piece adds a hint of animation, as if the motion utilized
to play these violins captured within the instruments themselves. The glossy
surface of the violins captures the light, encouraging viewer interaction with
this sculptural work. This piece represents Arman's long held fascination with
the violin, for the artist adeptly captures both the solidity of the instrument
and the emotional range of the music which it produces.
Created in 2005, this original relief sculpture of varnished iron mounted on wood multiple is hand-signed by Fernandez Arman (1928-2005) in silver ink and annotated 'EA I/IV' on the wood mount (aside from the edition of 8 and 2 hors commerce). | |

Arman biografía
Arman (1928 - 2005)
Armand Fernandez. French born sculptor who settled in New York in 1963 and became an American citizen in 1972. He was born in Nice and studied briefly in Paris at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs and the Ecole du Louvre. In 1957, with his friend Yves Klein, he decided to be known by his first name only, and the form 'Arman' was adopted in 1958 as the result of a printer's error on the cover of a catalogue. Like Klein, he was interested in Japanese culture, particularly Zen Buddhism, and (again like Klein) he worked for a time as a judo instructor. In the early 1960s Arman gained a reputation as one of the leading exponents of Nouveau Réalisme and he is best known for his assemblages of junk material. These range from modest collections of household debris (Accumulation of Sliced Teapots, Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, 1964) to a huge tower (about 20 meters high) of 60 automobiles embedded in cement (Long-Term Parking, Cartier Museum, jouy-en-josas, 1982).
