Howard Hodgkin (1932-2017)For Edward 1984 debossed with the artist's initials and dated 1984acrylic and gouache on card laid on cardboard in found frame20 by 27.2 cm.7 7/8 by 10 11/16 in.Footnotes:A frontispiece cut from the exhibition catalogue Howard Hodgkin: Forty Paintings, 1973-1984, Whitechapel Gallery, London 1985, with a dedication written by the artist in pencil, 'For Edward Love from Howard 1985', was found inside the frame of the picture, which was discovered posthumously. This work will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné being compiled by The Estate of Howard Hodgkin.ProvenancePrivate Collection, UKAcquired from the above by the present owner circa 1995A work that was only recently re-discovered and is completely fresh to market after having remained almost entirely unseen since the artist gifted the painting to its namesake in 1985, For Edward is a veritable lost treasure, which will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné compiled by the artist's estate. It is amongst those rare paintings that embody the spirit of an artist at his zenith – negotiating scale, composition and colour with outstanding tact. With paintings residing in museums internationally, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Museu de Arte Contemporanea de Sao Paulo, Brazil, and the Centro de Arte Moderna, Lisbon, this represents an opportunity to acquire a work of exceptional quality with unique provenance, by one of the most prominent and celebrated painters of the post-war period. Upon encountering Howard Hodgkin's paintings, the transcendent quality and extensive appeal of his style is palpable and evident. Mastering an orchestral sweep and dapple of the brush, Hodgkin's paintings are harmonic in their affect, and none quite so precisely composed as in the present work, For Edward, from 1984 – the same year Hodgkin stepped up to the international stage exhibiting in the British Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, before he would go on to win the Turner Prize in 1985. Hodgkin's virtuosic brushwork is exquisite and hypnotizing, and the present work is a truly compelling and succinct example of the artist's talent as it translates into his expressive mark. Emerging from the Bath Academy of Art at Corsham in 1954 under the pupilage of William Scott, Hodgkin was an influence unto himself. Early inspiration came in The New American Painting exhibition of Abstract Expressionist artists at the Tate Gallery in 1959, and the significance of Rothko's planes of colour is never far. Yet he shunned the flatness of American Modernism, pushing the painting out of its frame and creating abstract depths of field that translate as windows onto a vivid and luscious landscape. As his close friend, the acclaimed writer Julian Barnes once wrote: 'H.H.'s paintings are not narratives. Mostly, they are memories. But it is not a case of emotion recollected in tranquility. Rather, it is emotion recollected in intensity. In that sense his pictures are operatic' (Julian Barnes, Keeping an Eye Open, London: Jonathan Cape, 2015, 260). Produced in a hugely important year for Hodgkin, For Edward is exemplary of the later period of his career that the artist was entering in the mid-1980s. As hasty as the paintings appear, he was in fact renowned for the meticulous and slow nature of his work, with many paintings taking years to complete. In For Edward, the refined brushwork and teeming chromatic scales of green and orange are a delight to behold at such an elegant scale, and wonderfully speak to the Hodgkin's lifelong appreciation for Indian art and culture.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

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
