Lithograph of an impressive and rare work by Mimmo Rotella. The piece is one of a series of hand-torn lithograph decollages that the renowned artist produced in 2004. The pieces come directly from the Mimmo Rotella foundation, are extensively documented in the overview work 'Multipli decollages Mimmo Rotella', and are hand-signed and hand-numbered by the artist.
The work of Mimmo Rotella is one of the first forms of Pop Art that we know. In the 1950s, Rotella tore posters from walls and pasted them on canvas, manipulating them into a new vision of mass media by removing them from their usual context. In doing so, Rotella was ten years ahead of later developments in Pop Art, making him one of the most important European artists of our time, with exhibitions in major museums around the world, including the MoMa in New York, the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the MoCa in Los Angeles.
