We are a popular contemporary art boutique specializing in expertly chosen, blue chip prints, multiples, uniques, books, ephemera and merchandise at different price points, with a focus on the secondary market. Over the years, we have built a loyal following on Artsy, Artnet, 1stDibs and Artspace - but we have been selling fine art online before all of them. For the privacy of our clients and for ease in viewing, we typically unpublish works after they have sold - and we do not share sold prices.
Description
Nicolas Party
Head, 2021
This gorgeous limited edition silkscreen was created on the occasion of the artist's exhibition at the Consortium Museum, "Boilly", titled after the prolific French artist Louis-Léopold Boilly (1761-1845), a painter, engraver and miniaturist known for his portraits, genre scenes, fêtes galantes and caricatures. For this exhibition, Party created a series of murals inspired by Boilly’s works. Their monumentality serves as a setting for Party’s pastels on canvas and his large-scale polychromic sculptures. With this work, Party continues to explore a dialogue between traditional artworks and contemporary art, in a desire to close the gap between sometimes obscure classic genres and a more immediately accessible current aesthetic.
