by (PICABIA, Francis)
Single folded sheet forming [4] pp. Paris: Galerie Allendy, 1950.
An extremely rare exhibition announcement for Picabia’s 1950-51 exhibition at Colette Allendy’s gallery; we find no example in North America. This served as an invitation to the vernissage on the opening day and contains a short text by the artist on the state of painting. In fine condition.
❧ For more on Allendy’s important gallery see the Leonard A. Lauder Research Center’s Modern Art Index Project entry on Colette Allendy (1895-1960). (Inventory #: 10866)
