The show consisted of works created by Freud between 1939 and 1996. Apparently there were very small quantities of this lithograph printed for distribution at the opening night reception and they went quickly. The exhibition ran from June 25 to September 8, 1996.

Provenance: the Estate of Guenther Dietz (German, 1919-1995), who printed the edition. Comment(s): Although this work is often catalogued as a lithograph, or silkscreen, or pochoir, or photo-lithograph, in reality it is none of these. By 1964 Guenther Dietz, the printer, had created a unique fine printing system which involved the use of both lithographic plates and serigraphic screens. He and master printers from his company (Guenther Dietz Offizin Handpresse GmbH, Munich & Lengmoos, Germany) printed this work under the direct supervision and participation of Picasso himself. Dietz used grease crayon, lithographic tusche, lead pencil, and charcoal, among others, to create the matrixes and receive Picasso’s approval to print the edition (Cramer, ‘Livres’ 148). The plates and screens were destroyed after printing. Published by Harry N. Abrams, Inc., New York. Image copyright © Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York. [30026-2-1600]

Lot 440

Artist: James Rizzi (American, 1950-2011). Title: "Kiss - Kiss - Bang - Bang". Medium: Color silkscreen and lithograph. Date: Composed 1997. Dimensions: Overall size: 6 5/8 x 14 in. (168 x 356 mm).

Comment(s): A rare "flat-print" proof for a proposed "3-D" edition, not intended for sale or distribution. Rizzi was an American pop artist who was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. While at the University of Florida he came up with the idea of 3D multiples now mostly associated with his name. Having taken classes in painting, printmaking, and sculpture, he had to hand in grade work for all three subjects, but only had time for doing one. So he created an etching, printed it twice, handcolored it, and mounted parts of the one print on top of the other, using wire as a means of adding depth.
