Bernard Aubertin (1934-2015) - Téléphone brûlé

Bernard Aubertin Burned Phone Extremely rare work, archived and catalogued as shown in the photo. Hand-signed by the artist on the back Dimensions including the frame: 43 x 52 cm - without the frame 30 x 40 cm. In excellent condition. For true collectors. The archival document will be attached to the artwork. Shipped by express courier, professionally packed. Created in 2011, part of the micro-series of experiments with mobile phones — a body of works almost unknown and produced in very limited quantities, 8/10 at most. He used his personal phones. Aubertin uses a first-generation Nokia phone, subjected to controlled combustion: the fused surfaces, material deformations, and scorch marks become visual and sculptural elements, perfectly aligned with the artist's distinctive language. The phone is mounted on a dark red background, an iconic color in Aubertin's practice, and enclosed in a black display case that enhances its three-dimensional presence. The work measures 45 × 35 cm and is ready to be displayed. These experiments with phones are almost impossible to find: Aubertin produced only a few specimens, making this piece one of the most sought-after works among ZERO movement collectors and enthusiasts of combustion art. A unique work, of museum quality — ideal as an investment and a notable addition to any contemporary art collection.
