Christo (American, Bulgaria 1935-2020)Store Front (Project) 1964 signed, titled and dated 64; signed, titled, dated 1964 and inscribed 1 Lampe 25w on the reverseenamel, pencil, charcoal, plywood, electric light, metal wire and plexiglas mounted on wood60 by 85 by 10 cm.23 5/8 by 33 7/16 by 3 15/16 in.Footnotes:This work is registered in the Christo & Jeanne-Claude archive.ProvenancePrivate Collection, Europe (acquired directly from the artist)Sale: Dorotheum, Vienna, Contemporary Art, 25 November 2009, Lot 3Acquired directly from the above by the present ownerOn the same day in June 1935, Christo and Jeanne-Claude were born into very different worlds – Christo Valdimirov Javacheff in Bulgaria and Jeanne-Claude Guillebon in French Morocco. Meeting in Paris in 1958, their personal and professional lives would be forever intertwined, eventually becoming the most important artist-duo of the second half of the 20th century. Their unique vision would bring their wrapped works and large-scale installations to cities and landscapes across the globe, including a final work to be presented in Paris in September 2021, L'Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped, posthumously in accordance with the artists' wishes. It is however in the artists' earlier Store Fronts and Store Front Projects where we can really begin to see this initial scaling-up of their unique aesthetic. A series of works that were initiated after their move to New York City in 1964, the present work Store Front (Project) from the same year is a delicate and thoughtful example of his preparatory works from this landmark series.After fleeing communist Bulgaria via Czechoslovakia and Vienna, Christo made his way to the French capital, where his quintessential style of wrapping cans, bottles and everyday domestic items was immediately established. In Paris, Christo gravitated towards the Nouveau Réalisme movement, joining the ranks of Yves Klein, Martial Raysse and Niki de Saint Phalle however soon after his marriage to Jeanne-Claude and the birth of their son, the young family decide to emigrate to New York. Initially installing themselves at the Chelsea Hotel, renown home-from-home for many artists, they would eventually move to a loft in downtown Manhattan, gifting the Chelsea Hotel owner with one of his Store Front Projects as collateral for the bill. To-scale shop façades created from wood and painted in a variety of colours, each Store Front was preceded by detailed architectural maquette-like sketches, typical of Christo's lifelong working process. The present work is a rare and intricate example of these preparatory works, with every detail of the eventual Store Front replicated: from the precise to scale measurements to the metal grill on the windows and the internal lights illuminating the colourful interior. Born from the Show Cases Christo was already creating from found medicine cabinets in Paris in 1963, the Store Fronts should be understood as their scaling-up. Similar to the evolution of the early Wrapped Cans or Packages, which would eventually evolve into projects such as The Pont Neuf Wrapped (1979), the Store Fronts recall the imposing architecture of New York City. 'The result was enigmatic, architectonically elusive, evocative: Store Fronts were of great beauty, possessed of quiet melancholy and a sense of loneliness that recalled the work of American painter Edward Hopper or the boxes of Joseph Cornell. The pervasive sense of mystery [leaving] the observer wondering what was behind the façades' (Jacob Baal-Teshuva, Christo and Jeanne-Claude, New York 2001, p. 27). If the Show Cases are understood as the precursor to the Store Fronts, the Store Fronts are understood by the artist as precursors to the Valley Curtains in Colorado (1972) and the Running Fence in California (1976). It is in the Store Fronts that the concept of internal and external space is initially explored, 'the store fronts radiate a kind of suspense, as if the blocked windows or the closed door might admit one if you only knew the hours of opening. However, our perceptual and physical links are arrested as the invitation stays unfulfilled. What Christo [and Jeanne-Claude have] done is to turn physical space into psychological response, as the façade becomes a wall, absolutely cancelling the inside... [They] cancel the internal space that we anticipate and define space as what is between us and the glass. The spectator's investigative, voyeuristic impulse is converted into an experience of himself, as an object in space' (Lawrence Alloway, Christo, New York 1969, p. VII). The Store Fronts act as a vehicle for our conceptual understanding of space in direct relation to our surroundings. Diverging from the work of the Minimalists, Christo's approach to space is specifically architectural, addressing our every-day interactions to the world around us and how we manipulate and manoeuvre within that space daily. Like the wrapping of the Pont Neuf or the Valley Curtain, the Store Fronts force the viewer to renegotiate their relationship to that space both physically and psychologically. The familiarity of these buildings and spaces is ruptured by the artist's intervention forcing us to confront our own physicality.While as much technical drawings as they are works of art in their own right, the preparatory works represent a lasting testament to the fleeting nature of their monumental culminations. The present work is a rare example within the Store Front Projects in its inclusion of internal light-fittings, its internal illumination bringing the potential of this project to life. The precise architectural nature of the Store Front Projects is evidence of Christo and Jeanne-Claude's unique vision as sculptors but also as visionaries who have made the world's cities and landscape their canvas. Christo's work has been celebrated in the world's most important museums with his Store Fronts and Store Front Projects found in some prominent collections including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Hirsshorn Museum, Washington D.C., the Kaiser Wilhelm Museum, Krefeld, Germany and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. His work can also be found in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Tate Modern, London and the Centre Pompidou, Paris, where the artist's work is currently being exhibited in a landmark retrospective, where an entire room has been dedicated to the extraordinary Store Fronts and Store Front Projects.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Niki de Saint Phalle (French, 1930-2002)Winged Owl Chair 1999 stained glass, formed glass, Murano glass and mirror on teak wood 176 by 132 by 84 cm.69 5/16 by 51 15/16 by 33 1/16 in.This work was executed in 1999 and is unique.Footnotes:ProvenanceYoko Shizue Masuda Collection, JapanPrivate Collection, Japan (by descent from the above)Acquired from the above by the present ownerExhibitedTokyo, The National Art Center, Niki de Saint Phalle, 2015, p. 174, no. 151, illustrated in colourSeoul, Hangaram Art Museum, Niki de Saint Phalle: works from the Masuda collection, 2018Niki de Saint Phalle, born Catherine-Marie-Agnès Fal de Saint Phalle to French-American parents in the wealthy Parisian suburb of Neuilly-Sur-Seine, would come to be known as one of the most widely recognised artists in the world. Popular with collectors the world over, Saint Phalle is known for her joyous and fantastical larger-than-life sculptures of women, animals and mythical creatures in an unabashedly vivid rainbow palette. The aesthetic incarnation of pure extasy, Saint Phalle joined the Nouveau Réalisme movement in the early 1960s – the only female member, her unique vision aligned itself with the disparate aesthetic and founding principals of the group. The present work, Winged Owl Chair, 1999, which held pride of place in the artist's home in La Jolla, California, is an exquisite example of the artist's fantastical vison.Raised in a wealthy conservative Catholic family, Saint Phalle would later go onto describe her upbringing as hellish. Having suffered terrible abuse at the hands of both her parents, the trauma of her upbringing went on to influence much of her adult life and artistic output. Desperate to escape the abuse and the rigid rules of bourgeois society, Saint Phalle married her childhood friend Harry Matthews in 1949, giving birth to their first child two years later. Living a transitory and Bohemian lifestyle, Saint Phalle soon began to realise that the domestic reality of family life had only replicated the same bourgeois confines and conventions she had originally hoped to escape. This realisation resulted in a severe psychological breakdown and after a failed suicide attempt Saint Phalle turned to painting as a form of therapy. In 1954 the young family moved to Majorca and Saint Phalle travelled extensively throughout Spain where she was first introduced to Antoni Gaudí's work. Struck by the Parc Güell in Barcelona, Gaudí's work would open Saint Phalle to unimagined artistic possibilities and would go onto strongly influence her work and specifically her sculpture gardens.Fascinated by the spiritual, Saint Phalle rebelled against her Catholic upbringing searching for a higher existence outside of the confines of the Christian faith. This search reveals itself in the numerous works inspired by Egyptian, Mesopotamian and Indian deities, which after her move to California in 1994, would lead to an interest in Native American spirituality and Mesoamerican cosmology. Created towards the end of the artist's life while living in La Jolla, California, the Winged Arm Chair incorporates many of these influences. Crafted from teak and coloured glass, including Murano glass, the present work speaks to both the artist's past and present. The coloured glass and specifically the Murano glass recalls the artist's relationship to Italy and the Tarot Garden more specifically, while Saint Phalle's use of wood in conjunction with the totemic nature and the symbolism of the Owl recalls both Native American and Mesoamerican spiritual traditions. Saint Phalle would continue to explore these historical Californian and central American traditions in her work, which would culminate in the creation of Queen Califa's Magical Circle , her final sculpture garden in Kit Carson Park, Escondia. Sadly Saint Phalle would never see this final iteration of her vision come to life, dying the year before it opened in 2003.Niki de Saint Phalle's work has the unique ability of penetrating all aspects of 20th century visual culture. Her unique style is universally recognised, with her public sculptures found across three continents and her works collected in museums across the globe including the Louisiana Museum of Art, Humlebaek, Modern Museet, Stockholm, the Tate Gallery, London, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and the National Museum of Art, Osaka among many others, with the present work included in a landmark exhibition at the National Art Centre, Tokyo in 2015.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * AR TP* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.TP Lots denoted with a 'TP' will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
