Unsigned from an edition of unknown. From: Derrière le miroir Printed in France c. 1970. Looks excellent framed. Derrière le miroir: In October 1945 the French art dealer Aimé Maeght opens his art gallery at 13 Rue de Téhéran in Paris. His beginning coincides with the end of Second World War and the return of a number of exiled artists back to France. The publication was created in October 1946 (n°1) and published without interruption until 1982 (n°253). Its original articles and illustrations (mainly original color lithographs by the gallery artists) were famous at the time. The lithographic publication covered only the artists exhibited by Maeght gallery either through personal or group exhibitions. Among them were, Pierre Alechinsky, Francis Bacon, Alexander Calder, Marc Chagall, Eduardo Chillida, Alberto Giacometti, Vassily Kandinsky, Ellsworth Kelly, Fernand Léger, Henri Matisse, Joan Miró, Saul Steinberg and Antoni Tapies. Saul Steinberg was a Romanian cartoonist and illustrator best known for his iconic contributions to The New Yorker magazine. Steinberg’s drawing style is characterized by a playful, childlike-doodle quality while also maintaining an elegant deftness that succinctly described a wide range of subjects. His quirky, sharply observed sketches, at times reminiscent of Dada art, also crossed over into the fine arts world. Along with Arshile Gorky and Robert Motherwell, Steinberg exhibited work at in the landmark “Fourteen Americans” show at The Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1948 and at the Betty Parsons Gallery, which was then at the center of the Abstract Expressionist movement. Born on June 15, 1914 in Râmnicu Sarat, Romania, Steinberg went on to study philosophy at the University of Bucharest but opted not to finish his degree, instead enrolling as an architecture student at the Politecnico di Milano in Milan. Steinberg fled Italy in 1941 with the rise of the anti-Semitic policies, eventually settling in the United States where the artist went on to create over 1,200 drawings for The New Yorker, including 87 covers. Steinberg died on May 12, 1999 in New York, NY. Related Categories Saul Steinberg prints. Saul Steinberg The New Yorker. Vintage Saul Steinberg. Surrealist.
