Fernando BoteroDr. Wibke von Bonin and guest (Harald Szeemann) Bleistift auf Papier 50 x 65,2 cm. Unter Glas gerahmt. Signiert, datiert und betitelt '"Dr. Wibke von Bonin and guest" Botero 71'. - Mit leichten Altersspuren.ProvenienzPrivatsammlung, Nordrhein-WestfalenDie Zeichnung entstand nach einer Fotografie von Manfred Tischer, Düsseldorf, und zeigt Wibke von Bonin und Harald Szeemann im Oktober 1970 in Köln. Die Fotografie liegt bei. Fernando Botero porträtiert in dieser Zeichnung zwei maßgebliche Förderer zeitgenössischer Kunst in Deutschland, Wibke von Bonin und Harald Szeemann.Von Bonin ist nach ihrer Promotion zunächst an der Kunsthalle Baden-Baden tätig, wo sie gemeinsam mit Szeemann eine Ausstellung zu kinetischer Kunst konzipiert. 1965 wechselt sie zum WDR nach Köln und ist hier über drei Jahrzehnte hinweg verantwortlich für das Ressort Bildende Kunst. Ihr Hauptaugenmerkt liegt auf der Zeitgenössischen Kunst, in zahlreichen filmischen Porträts und Atelierbesuchen bringt sie deren nationale und internationale Protagonisten einer breiten Öffentlichkeit näher.Der gebürtige Schweizer Szeemann ist 1961-1969 Direktor der Berner Kunsthalle, hier macht er sich mit progressiven kuratorischen Konzepten einen Namen. Wegweisend ist seine Ausstellung „When attitude becomes form“ von 1969, die erstmals Happenings und Installationen in den Museumkontext einbringt. 1972 kuratiert er die documenta 5, deren bisheriges Konzept er aufbricht, um den Künstlern freie Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten zu geben und „außerkünstlerische Bildwelten“ miteinzubeziehen. Szeemann entwickelt zahlreiche erfolgreiche, innovative Ausstellungen, die teils großangelegte Themenkomplexe behandeln, zweimal leitet er die Biennale in Venedig. Fernando BoteroDr. Wibke von Bonin and guest (Harald Szeemann) Pencil on paper 50 x 65.2 cm. Framed under glass. Signed, dated and titled '"Dr. Wibke von Bonin and guest" Botero 71'. - Minor traces of age.ProvenancePrivate collection, North Rhine-WestphaliaThe drawing originates after a photograph by Manfred Tischer, Dusseldorf, and shows Wibke von Bonin and Harald Szeemann Oktober 1970 in Cologne. The photograph is enclosed.In this drawing, Fernando Botero portrays two significant patrons of German contemporary art: Wibke von Bonin and Harald Szeemann.Following her doctorate, von Bonin started working at the Kunsthalle Baden-Baden where she and Szeemann conceptualised an exhibition on kinetic art. In 1965, she switched to the WDR in Cologne and remained in charge of the fine art department for more than 3 decades. She focused mainly on contemporary art and brought its national and international protagonists closer to a broad public through numerous film portraits and studio visits.A native of Switzerland, Szeemann was the director of Berner Kunsthalle from 1961-1969, making a name for himself with progressive curatorial concepts. His 1969 exhibition “When attitude becomes form” was ground-breaking, bringing happenings and installations into the museum context. In 1972, he curated documenta 5, thowing over its previous concept in order to give the artists free creative scope and to include “non-artistic visual worlds”. Szeemann developed numerous successful, innovative exhibitions which in part deal with large-scale thematic complexes. Twice, he has been director of the Venice Biennale.
A FINE GEM-SET AND DIAMOND BRACELET, BY FRED PARIS, CIRCA 1970 - 1980 Of articulated design, composed of four large openwork bombé links set with alternating sapphire, ruby and emerald cabochons highlighted with brilliant-cut diamonds throughout with textured gold detail, mounted in 18K gold, diamonds approximately 10.00cts, signed Fred Paris, with maker's mark 'AV' for André Vassort, French assay marks, with maker's case, length 17cm Fred Samuel (1908-2006) established his jewellery brand in 1936 in Paris, where he spent much of his professional life. Originally from Buenos Aires, born into a family that dealt in precious stones, it was no surprise he conceived a passion for cultured pearls and won recognition as a leading expert in the field. Fred imbued his designs with the energy of South America, saying his creations were inspired by the life, the light, the movement, the energy of the continent. This passion is expressed through the use of coloured gemstones and playful motifs. During World War II, Fred Samuel fled Paris and became an interpreter for the Allies. After the war, the brand changed its name to from Fred Samuel to 'Fred' due to anti-Jewish sentiment in post-war Germany. Describing himself in 1936 as a 'Contemporary Creative Jeweller', he proved this through his striking modern designs, with rounded, curvaceous lines. Fred became famous for jewels designed by Jean Cocteau and for its famous clients, such as Marlène Dietrich and the royal family of Monaco, including princess Grace. In 1966 Fred Paris was the inventor of cable jewellery 'Force 10' (made of stainless steel) and this feature is still very prominent today in ring, bracelet, pendant and necklace designs. As the brand grew, new stores were opened across the world; 1976 Monte Carlo, 1981 Cannes, 2001 Tokyo and 2007 Beijing, Dubai and Bogotá. The company became the property of LVMH in 1996 and Fred collaborated with Kate Moss for the design of an exclusive collection in 2012. Fred Paris designed the iconic 23 heart-shaped ruby necklace interlaced with diamonds, which was gifted to Julia Roberts by Richard Gere in the film Pretty Woman. The last major film for which Fred Paris provided jewellery was Casino Royale starring Daniel Craig, featuring the star collection pendant and earrings. This magnificent bracelet is a unique creation of Fred. n 1995 FRED joined the Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton LVMH group. In the secluded streets of Paris, shadowed by the celebrity of the great jewellery maisons of France, work the craftsmen whose talents satisfy the constant appetite for glamour. In December 1955, at 34 rue Sainte Anne, André Vassort registered his atelier and soon became one of the most sought-after jewellers in France. He was quickly employed by names such as Boucheron, Van Cleef and Arpels, Mauboussin and FRED. His work adorned their most discerning clients and he became a favourite in carrying out special commissions. Of particular note was the crown that he created under Van Cleef and Arpels for Empress Farah of Iran. Taking six months to complete, the magnificent piece is iridescent with diamonds, emeralds, rubies and pearls, mounted in white gold and set against a backdrop of forest-green velvet. Vassort specialised in working with gold, drawn to the warmth and texture that could be coaxed from the metal, however, he did not shy away from other materials. His understanding of gemstones allowed him to create bold and colourful pieces, exemplified in this lot. Working anonymously for larger houses, a large portion of Vassort's work is unsigned, but, here, we are gifted with his maker's mark 'AV'. When André Vassort closed his workshop in the early 1990s, his name and work were revered within the jewellery industry and his pieces had become synonymous with enduring quality.
A DIAMOND 'LEGENDE D'AUTOMNE' RING, BY JULIE GENET Realistically modelled as a thin maple leaf set with coloured diamonds of yellow and brown tint throughout, finished with a trifurcated gold hoop, mounted in 18K gold, diamonds 0.96ct total, signed 'JGJ' for Julie Genet Joaillerie, with maker's mark, French assay mark, with maker's case and pouch, ring size M The Autumnal colours of the ring's diamonds, tactile texture and maple leaf silhouette were inspired by the iconic film 'Legends of the Fall' based on Jim Harrisons short story. Harrison's writing portrays regions of North America, with stories set in picturesque areas like Nebraska's Sand Hills, Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Montana's mountains, and along the Arizona-Mexico border. The scenery illustrating the variety of nature and the passing of seasons are all featured in the film, which was of influence for the creation of this beautiful ring. Native American culture emphasizes harmony with nature, which is evident in the film. Legends of the Fall was primarily filmed on location in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. Principal photography began in mid-September 1993. The maple leaf became a symbol of Canada as early as the 1700s. In 1848, The Maple Leaf, a Canadian literary annual published in Toronto, ON, announced the maple leaf as the chosen emblem for Canada. By 1860, the maple leaf was used in the Royal Canadian 100th Regiment Badge. Maple trees symbolize balance, offering, practical magic, promise, longevity, generosity, and intelligence. Leaves hold symbolism in many cultures, but in general, they symbolize fertility and growth. The green leaves of spring and summer depict hope, renewal and revival. Blazing yellow, orange and red leaves of fall represent the change of season.
A FINE GEM-SET AND DIAMOND PENDANT/BROOCH, BY FRED PARIS, CIRCA 1975 -1980 Designed as a stylised present bow, centring a ruby cabochon within a surround of brilliant-cut diamonds, the ribbons of openwork decorated with alternating sapphire, emerald and ruby cabochons with brilliant-cut diamond highlights throughout, mounted in 18K gold, diamonds approximately 6.00cts total, signed Fred Paris, with maker's marks for André Vassort (partially rubbed), French assay marks, with brooch and pendant fitting, length 6.4cm Fred Samuel (1908-2006) established his jewellery brand in 1936 in Paris, where he spent much of his professional life.
