ZAO WOU KI (Beijing, 1921 - Nyon, Switzerland, 2013).Untitled, from the Suite Olympic Centennial, 1992.Lithograph on 270 gsm Vélin d'Arches paper, copy 110/250.Hand signed and justified.This work is part of the "Suite Olympic Centennial", complete edition 110/250, which will be auctioned on 27 September 2022, in 50 consecutive lots numbered 35245230 to 35245280.Measurements: 90 x 63 cm.Zao Wou Ki is the second most sought-after post-war artist in the world and the sixth most expensive of all time. In the first half of 2018, his sales were only behind those of stars such as Picasso, Monet, Modigliani and Andy Warhol. At the end of 2018, one of his paintings was sold for 56.5 million euros at auction at Sotheby's. The work made Wou-Ki the most expensive Asian artist in history.Zao Wou Ki was born into a Franco-Chinese family and grew up in a highly cultured environment, interested in the arts and sciences. He studied calligraphy as a child, an aspect that would influence his mature work, and later trained in painting at the Hangzhou College of Fine Arts from 1935-1941. A few years later, in 1948, he settled in Paris, in the Montparnasse district, where he followed the artistic courses of Émile Othon Friesz and came into contact with the contemporary artistic avant-garde. He began to experiment with lithography, a technique which he eventually mastered, following his contact with Desjobert. He holds a solo exhibition at the Galerie Creuze in May 1949, with a presentation written by Bernard Dorival, curator of the Musée National d'Art Moderne. In January 1951 Pierre Loeb visits Wou-Ki's studio with Henri Michaux, organising an exhibition at the Galerie Pierre for June, thus laying the foundations for a close collaborative relationship that would last six years. He held regular exhibitions at the Pierre Gallery and met I. M. Pei and his wife Eileen, opening his circle of exhibitions in Switzerland, London, Basel and Lausanne, as well as in New York, Washington and Chicago. His painting is eminently abstract and colourist, strongly influenced by the work of Paul Klee, for its expressionist and emotive abstraction. He tends to work with large masses of intense and contrasting colour, often creating works of large dimensions, as well as diptychs or triptychs. They are often explosions of colour, germinal "big bangs", the origin of a world in creation, as we can see in this lithograph. Delicate patches of blue and mauve intermingle with some grey tones.

Andy Warhol. Interview. Umfangreiche Sammlung von 159 Einzelheften der ersten neunzehn Jahrgänge. New York, Eigenverlag / Brant Publ., 1969-1989. Folio. Illustrierte Original-Broschuren (berieben, bestoßen, wenige Cover mit Kugelschreibermarginalien) in 18 modernen, bunt gestalteten Lwd.-Chemisen mit geprägten RTitel in 18 blauen Pappschubern (diese tls. etw. berieben). Vorhanden sind u.a. aus Jahrgang I: 1-2, 4, 8, 10 und 11. - Aus II: 20, 22-24, 26 und 28. - Aus III u.a. 30-33 sowie 35-37. - Die Cover mit tls. von Richard F. Bernstein gestalteten Farboffset-Portraits von: Isabelle Adjani, Phoebe Cates, Cher, Tom Cruise, Dali, Matt Dillon, Jodie Foster, Aretha Franklin, Mel Gibson, Debbie Harry, Michael Jackson, Don Johnson, Grace Jones, Annie Lennox, Madonna, Bette Midler, Liza Minelli, Eddie Murphy, Jack Nicholson, Burt Reynolds, Ginger Rogers, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Brooke Shields, Sylvester Stallone, Sting, Liz Taylor, John Travolta, Rachel Ward, Raquel Welch, Robin Williams u.v.a. - In dieser Menge kaum mehr zu erlangende Folge ohne Dubletten der seit 1969 von Andy Warhol während der größten Zeit seiner Factory im Eigenverlag herausgegebenen legendären Zeitschrift. Die ursprünglich auf Warhols Tonbandmitschnitten von Parties beruhenden, meist unredigiert in schriftliche Form gebrachten "Interviews", kombiniert mit großformatigen graphischen Anzeigen und Photos, bieten einen brillianten Einblick in die - nicht nur New Yorker - Kulturszene der Zeit und das, was die Mitarbeiter, Gäste und Musen der Factory bewegte. Neben Warhol verfassten später auch zunehmend andere Berühmtheiten wie Bianca Jagger oder Truman Capote eigene Beiträge. In den 1980ern überließ Warhol Bob Colacello die Leitung des Magazins, unter dessen Einfluss es sich allmählich in eine Modezeitschrift verwandelte. - Wegen der erratischen Nummerierung ist der Umfang einzelner Jahrgänge teils schwer festzustellen. - Unbeschnitten, z.T. mit Faltspuren, papierbedingt gebräunt, teils geklebte Läsuren, sonst insgesamt sehr guter Erhaltungszustand. Vast collection of 159 numbers of the legendary pop-art magazine from the first 19 years of its existence. Original illustrated wrappers (rubbed, bumped, a few covers with ball pen marginalia). Loosely inserted in 18 new chemises in bright colours in 18 blue cardboard slipcases. - See above for a listing of some of the early numbers. - The covers with colour offset portraits partially by Richard F. Bernstein among others as listed above. - This is a hard-to-find set without duplicates of the legendary magazine Andy Warhol self-published from 1969 during the greatest period of his Factory. Originally based on Warhol's tape recordings of parties, the mostly unedited "interviews" in written form, combined with large-format graphic advertisements and photos, offer a brilliant insight into the - not only New York - cultural scene of the time and what moved the Factory's employees, guests and muses. Alongside Warhol, other celebrities such as Bianca Jagger or Truman Capote later increasingly wrote their own contributions. In the 1980s, Warhol left the management of the magazine to Bob Colacello, under whose influence it gradually transformed into a fashion magazine. - A set hardly to be obtained in this quantity any more without duplicates. - Uncut, some browning due to paper, partially with foldmarks and backed defects, otherwise overall very well preserved.

ANDY WARHOL (Pittsburgh, USA, 1928 - New York, USA, 1987)."From de Sonaben Collection, Gagosian, 2009.Lithograph poster.Unsigned.Size: 76 x 50,5 cm.Double-sided lithograph poster with Warhol's Sonnabend Collection in the show at Gagosian New York in 2009.Warhol's Sonnabend Collection remains, to this day, one of the most iconic pieces of his work. The Gagosian wanted to create a poster for the exhibition that would be "a snapshot of the history of Warhol's art collecting".An American visual artist who became the best known representative of pop art, an artistic trend in vogue during the 1950s and 1960s that was inspired by mass culture. The son of Slovakian immigrants, he began his art studies at the Carnegie Institute of Technology between 1945 and 1949. In the latter year he began his career as an advertising cartoonist for various magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Seventeen and The New Yorker. At the same time he painted canvases with everyday, advertising and comic themes. He soon began to exhibit in various galleries. He progressively eliminated any expressionist traits from his works until he reduced them to a serial repetition of a popular element from mass culture, the world of consumerism or the media. This evolution reached its peak of depersonalisation in 1962, when he began to use a mechanical silkscreen printing process as his working method, by means of which he systematically reproduced myths of contemporary society, the most representative examples of which are the series dedicated to Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Elizabeth Taylor and Mao Tse-tung, as well as his famous treatment of Campbell's soup cans, all works produced during the fruitful decade of the 1960s. The use of mass-circulated images, easily recognisable by all kinds of audiences, such as the aforementioned soup cans or Coca-Cola bottles, became one of the most interesting and stable features of his entire output. On other occasions he crudely depicted real situations, such as accidents, street fights, funerals or suicides; within this theme, Electric chair is one of his most significant works. This appropriationism, a constant feature of the work of the supporters of Pop Art, extended to universal works of art by authors such as Raphael Sanzio, Giorgio de Chirico, Edvard Munch and Leonardo da Vinci. Through mass reproduction, he succeeded in stripping the media fetishes he used of their usual referents, turning them into stereotypical icons with a decorative meaning. In 1963 he set up the Factory, a workshop in which many of New York's underground culture gathered around him. The frivolity and extravagance that marked his way of life established a coherent line between his work and his life's trajectory; his peculiar appearance, androgynous and permanently topped with a characteristic blond fringe, ended up defining a new icon: the artist himself. He was one of the first artists to consciously exploit his image for self-promotional purposes; through a process of identification, he acquired in the eyes of the public the significance of just another advertising product. In 1963 he began a film career based on the same principles as his plastic work (such as visual reiteration), sometimes with a strong sexual and erotic content.
