Bernard Aubertin (1934-2015) - Affiche brûlée - Zéro der neue idealismus

Original work by Bernard Aubertin, an artist linked to the ZERO movement, belonging to the series of the Affiches brûlées, in which fire intervenes on the printed poster, transforming its surface. Title: Affiche brûlée – Zéro, der neue Idealismus Year: 2010 Technique: burns on paper poster Dimensions of the artwork: 100 × 72 cm Outer frame dimensions: 76.5 × 105 cm Edition: unique Signature: hand-signed and dated by the artist Provenance: private collection Authenticity: archived artwork accompanied by the certificate of the Archivio Opere Bernard Aubertin of Brescia, Rovetta family. The poster features a wide circular composition with text dedicated to the ZERO movement, on an orange background. The burn marks traverse the surface creating irregular openings, browned margins and traces that interrupt the continuity of the words and image. The contrast between the order of the printed composition and the unpredictability of the fire’s action expresses Aubertin’s search for the transformation of matter. The large size gives the work a strong visual presence. The work is presented in a black frame with protective glass, ready for display. Work in good conservation condition, as documented by the photographs. The burn marks, openings and alterations of the paper due to combustion are an integral part of the artistic intervention. Shipping with professional, meticulous packaging and specific protection for the frame and glass, insured and trackable.
