MANOLO VALDÉS (Valencia, 1942)."Matisse as a pretext".Silkscreen on linen. Copy 90/100.Hand signed.Size: 148 x 122 cm.In an interview that the artist gave to the newspaper ABC in 2016, Valdés pointed out his artistic connection with Matisse, and his interest in the interpretation of his work. In addition, this same year he exhibited at the Marlborough Fine Art gallery in London, the show entitled "Recent Work. Paintings and sculptures", a selection of eleven works that paid homage to the artistic oeuvre of Henri Matisse. In fact, when the Valencian painter was interviewed about the exhibition, Valdés replied "I answer his paintings with other paintings". This work is a clear example of Valdés's response to the French artist, rescuing his odalisques and enveloping them in a pop aesthetic.Manolo Valdés introduced in Spain a form of artistic expression that combines political and social commitment with humour and irony. He began his training in 1957, when he entered the San Carlos School of Fine Arts in Valencia. However, two years later he abandoned his studies to devote himself fully to painting. In 1964 he founded the artistic group Equipo Crónica, together with Juan Antonio Toledo and Rafael Solbes, in which he remained until the latter's death in 1981, despite the fact that Toledo had left the group two years after its foundation. Since then he has settled in New York, where he currently lives and where he has continued to experiment with new forms of expression, including sculpture. Among the numerous awards Manolo Valdés has won are the Lissone and Biella awards in Milan, the silver medal at the II International Biennial of Engravings in Tokyo, the Bridgestone Art Museum prize in Lisbon, the National Prize for Plastic Arts, the medal at the International Festival of Fine Arts, the International Festival of Fine Arts in Paris, and the International Festival of Fine Arts medal at the International Festival of Fine Arts in Paris, among others, the medal of the International Festival of Plastic Artists of Baghdad, the Decoration of the Order of Andrés Bello in Venezuela, the prize of the National Council of Monaco, the Gold Medal for Merit in Fine Arts, the Prize of the Spanish Association of Art Critics and the Prize for the Best Print Artist, among others. Formally, Valdés produces a large-format work in which the lights and colours express tactile values, due to the treatment given to the materials. His work forces the viewer to delve into memory and search for significant images from the history of art. He is represented in some of the world's leading museums, such as the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the Metropolitan, the MoMA and the Guggenheim in New York, the Centre Georges Pompidou and the Fons National d'Arts Plastiques in Paris, the Kusnthalle in Hamburg, the Kunstmuseum in Berlin and the Museo de Bellas Artes in Bilbao, among many others.

ANDY WARHOL (Pittsburgh, USA,1928-New York, USA,1987)."Box of Glitter".Cardboard, mounted on passe-partout.With stamp of the Levi Gallery (Milan).Size: 18 x 20 x 6,5 cm; 30 x 30 (passe-partout).Glossy box conceived by the artist for the first time in 1964, it was the work for which the art critic Arthur Danto declared the death of art. In his explanation, he stated that through these detergent boxes, the artist had conquered reality by making everyday objects into art. In reality, Warhol was exploring a path already opened by Duchamp in 1917, but which in this case alluded to a mass culture, marked by capitalism and strong industrialisation.Andrew Warhola, commonly known as Andy Warhol, was an American visual artist, filmmaker and music producer who played a crucial role in the birth and development of pop art. Considered in his time a guru of modernity, Warhol was one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. The son of Slovakian immigrants, he began studying art at the Carnegie Institute of Technology between 1945 and 1949. In the latter year, when he settled in New York, he began his career as an advertising cartoonist for various magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Seventeen and The New Yorker. At the same time he painted canvases whose subject matter was based on some element or image from the everyday environment, advertising or comics. He soon began to exhibit in various galleries. He progressively eliminated any expressionist traits from his works until he reduced them to a serial repetition of a popular element from mass culture, the world of consumerism or the media. This evolution reached its peak of depersonalisation in 1962, when he began to use a mechanical silkscreen printing process as his working method, by means of which he systematically reproduced myths of contemporary society, the most representative examples of which are the series dedicated to Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Elizabeth Taylor and Mao Tse-tung, as well as his famous treatment of Campbell's soup cans, all works produced during the fruitful decade of the 1960s. This appropriationism, a constant in the work of the proponents of Pop Art, extended to universal works of art. By means of mass reproduction, he succeeded in stripping the media fetishes he used of their usual referents, turning them into stereotyped icons with a purely decorative purpose, and in 1963 he set up the Factory, a workshop in which numerous figures from New York's underground culture gathered around him. The frivolity and extravagance that marked his way of life eventually established a coherent line between his work and his life. He is currently represented in the most important contemporary art museums in the world, such as the MoMA, the Metropolitan and the Guggenheim in New York, the Fukoka Museum in Japan, the Kunstmuseum in Basel, the National Museum of 21st Century Art in Rome, the MUMOK in Vienna, the SMAK in Ghent and the Tate Gallery in London, as well as in the museums that bear his name in Pittsburgh and Medzilaborce (Slovakia).

Between the seventies and the nineties, already fully established internationally, he held important exhibitions in places such as the MOMA and the Guggenheim in New York, the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, etc. He also took part in the Venice Biennale in 1966 and the São Paulo Biennale in 1996. Particularly famous for his penetrable sculptures, he also carried out projects such as the decoration of the main hall of the Teatro Teresa Carreño in Caracas. Soto was awarded the Premio Nacional de Artes Plásticas de Venezuela, and in 1973 the Venezuelan government inaugurated a museum in his honour in his native Ciudad Bolívar. He is currently represented in important collections such as the Guggenheim Museum in New York.The Olympic Suite is composed of 50 lithographs and serigraphs chosen to represent various contemporary artistic trends.

A great international success, he has worked all over the world and represented France at the Universal Exhibition in Montreal in 1967. His solo exhibitions include retrospectives in Paris in 1995 (Jeu de Paume), Reykjavik (1996, Museum of Art), Mexico (1997, Museum of Fine Arts), Rio de Janeiro (1997, Museum of Modern Art), Beijing (1998, Museum of History) and Hong Kong (1998, Museum of Modern Art).

He is one of the most relevant protagonists of optical and kinetic art, an artistic current that claims "the awareness of the instability of the real". His research reveals him as one of the 20th century's thinkers of colour. The plastic discourse of Carlos Cruz-Diez gravitates around the chromatic phenomenon conceived as an autonomous reality that evolves in space and time, without the aid of form or support, in a continuous present. Carlos Cruz-Diez's works can be found in prestigious permanent collections such as those of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, Tate Modern in London, Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, Centre Pompidou in Paris, Museum of Fine Arts in Houston and Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne, among others.The Olympic Suite is composed of 50 lithographs and serigraphs chosen to represent various contemporary artistic trends.

Published to commemorate the first centenary of modern Olympism, the artists chosen are defined by different pictorial movements and trends.Toshimitsu Imai trained at the Tokyo State Academy of Art and his early works show a strong influence of the intellectual and decorative treatment of colour already employed by the Fauves. Throughout his career he moved towards increasing formal synthetism and was one of the introducers of abstract art in Japan, although he never entirely abandoned figuration, to which he returned repeatedly at various points in his life, exploring the connection between the historical avant-garde and its contributions and traditional Japanese art.

For him, all art must mean a shock, produce an intense emotion or reaction, and be novel. Although he was born in Naples, he spent his childhood in Naples, Turkey, Egypt, Greece and Italy. In 1949 he moved to Nice, where he spent much of his career. His contact in Nice with artists such as Fontan, Malaval, Klein and Arman was fundamental in shaping his style. In the 1960s he travelled to New York where he took part in the actions of the Fluxus group. His work was also imbued with conceptualism and minimalism, essential in his conception of art, which for him was not a purpose but a vehicle, a form of communication.The Olympic Suite consists of 50 lithographs and serigraphs chosen to represent various contemporary artistic trends. It was published to commemorate the first centenary of modern Olympism. The artists chosen are defined by diverse movements and pictorial currents, from the conceptualism and minimalism of "Ben" Vautier, the lyrical abstraction of Yasse Tabuchi, the painting of Oleg Tselkov who concentrates on the human figure, intensely expressive and treated with forceful forms and intense colours that seek to reflect the conflicts and violence of his time, and finally the work of André Arabis, clearly abstract and geometric.

In the mid-1960s Adami achieved his best-known Pop-influenced style: stylised images, outlined in black on areas of intense flat colours. His success was rapid, and in 1968 he represented Italy at the Venice Biennale. During these years he painted four large murals at the Firstar Bank headquarters in Madison (USA). His success continued, and in 1985 he held anthological exhibitions at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Commune in Milan.

EDUARDO CHILLIDA JUANTEGUI (San Sebastian, 1924 - 2002).Untitled, from the Suite Olympic Centennial, 1992.Relief silkscreen on Vélin d'Arches 270 grams paper, copy 110/250.Signed and justified in pencil.This work is part of the "Suite Olympic Centennial", complete edition 110/250, which will be auctioned on 27 September 2022, in 50 consecutive lots numbered 35245230 to 35245280.Measurements: 90 x 63 cm.Chillida began his training at the School of Architecture at the University of Madrid, but abandoned his studies to devote himself to football, as goalkeeper for Real Sociedad. As a result of an injury he was forced to give up sport, and it was then that his artistic vocation awoke. He began drawing at the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, and little by little his interest in sculpture grew. It was during his years in Paris that he made his first plaster sculptures, impressed by the archaic Greek sculpture in the Louvre. He held his first sculpture exhibition in the French capital in 1950. It was at this time that he began his rivalry with the sculptor Jorge Oteiza, who accused him of plagiarising his work. Both with a work linked to the constructivist tradition, they nevertheless dealt with different themes. In 1951 he returned to San Sebastian for good, and produced his first work in iron, the material with which he would work for the rest of his life. With the idea that art should be accessible to everyone, he produced numerous public works throughout his life, as well as sculptures for museums all over the world. His works dialogue with their surroundings, which is why many of them are already considered emblematic places for citizens, as is the case with the "Peine del viento" in San Sebastian and the "Puerta de la Libertad" in Barcelona. Throughout his life, Chillida received numerous prizes and awards, including the Carnegie Prize (1965), the Rembrandt Prize (1975), the Wolf Foundation Prize for the Arts (1984/85) and the Prince of Asturias Prize for the Arts (1987). He was also a member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando, a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, an Honorary Member of the Royal Academy of Arts in London, a member of the Imperial Order of Japan, and was awarded the Grand Cross for Humanitarian Merit by the Institution of the same name in Barcelona. In addition to his Chillida-Leku Museum in Hernani, he is represented in museums and collections all over the world, such as the Guggenheim in Bilbao, the MOMA in New York, the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the Tate Gallery in London and the Neue National gallery in Berlin.The Olympic Suite consists of 50 lithographs and serigraphs chosen to represent various contemporary artistic trends. It was published to commemorate the first centenary of modern Olympism. The chosen artists are defined by different movements and pictorial trends.

Among the artists represented there are creators of great international renown, widely recognised by the critics.An artist linked to various movements, including conceptual and minimal art, Sol LeWitt expressed himself mainly through painting, drawing, photography and structures. Born into a Jewish family of Russian immigrants, after receiving a BFA from Syracuse University in 1949 he began a series of trips around Europe, where he was influenced by the great masters of painting. Settling in New York in the 1950s, he focused his interest on graphic design, working for Seventeen Magazine. During the following decade the artist worked at the MoMA in New York, another experience that would mark the development of his work. During these years, LeWitt became one of the main representatives of conceptual art, which emphasised that the idea, and not its physical form, was fundamental. He was one of the pioneers of this movement, as well as one of its most prominent theoreticians, and his work has also been associated with Minimalism. From 1965 onwards LeWitt was the subject of hundreds of solo exhibitions in museums and galleries all over the world. His works range from two- and three-dimensional works, from wall paintings (over 1,200) to photographs, drawings and sculptures of all kinds, including towers, pyramids, geometric forms and progressions. Sol LeWitt frequently used open, modular structures based on the cube, a key form in the development of his language. In 1978, the Museum of Modern Art in New York devoted its first retrospective exhibition to LeWitt. LeWitt is currently represented there, as well as at the Guggenheim in New York and Bilbao, the Kunstmuseum in Basel, the Palazzo Forti in Verona, the SMAK in Ghent, the Tate Gallery in London, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden and the National Gallery in Washington, the Metropolitan in New York and the National Gallery of Australia, among many others.

Among the artists represented there are creators of great international renown, widely recognised by the critics.Born into a working-class family, Jiri Kolar moved to Prague in 1945, where he first worked as an editor and later devoted himself to poetry and the creation of collages. Kolar's language was influenced by surrealism and poetism (the Czech avant-garde poetic movement), particularly in the production of "rollages", a technique consisting of laminating important works of art in strips and reconstructing them in a new way. However, the arrival of the Communists to power in Czechoslovakia prevented Kolar from freely exhibiting and publishing his works. In fact, in 1950 he was imprisoned for the publication of a text called "Prometheus' Liver", written against the prevailing mentality of the time, which was closely linked to socialist realism. After a politically active period, Kolar emigrated to France, where he remained until the end of communism in 1989, regaining his Czech passport in 1992. Throughout his career as an artist, Jiri Kolar has held numerous exhibitions both in Europe and in the United States, most notably in 1881 at the Guggenheim Museum in New York.

MARTIN BRADLEY (Richmond, England, 1931).Untitled, 1992, from the "Suite Olympic Centennial".Silkscreen on Vélin d'Arches 270 gsm paper, copy 110/250.Hand signed and justified.This work is part of the "Suite Olympic Centennial", complete edition 110/250, which will be auctioned on 27 September 2022, in 50 consecutive lots numbered 35245230 to 35245280.Measurements: 90 x 63 cm.The Olympic Suite is made up of 50 lithographs and serigraphs chosen to represent various contemporary artistic trends. It was published to commemorate the first centenary of modern Olympism. The artists chosen work in very diverse movements and styles, from the hyperrealism of Antonio López to the abstraction of Sol Lewitt, including abstract expressionism, the geometrism of Arden Quin, conceptual art, pop art, the new realism of Baldaccini and Rotella, and the new fauvism of Dokoupil, among others. Among the artists represented there are creators of great international renown, widely recognised by the critics.With a rebellious spirit, Martin Bradley began his career as an artist at a very early age, settling in London in 1949. In the mid-1950s Bradley struck up a lasting friendship with the writers of "The Angry Young Men" group, writers of great importance in the British literary revival, where he met other young painters such as Phililip Martin and Alan Davie. In 1961 he received a grant to settle in Brazil, where he achieved great success and which led him to exhibit, on his return to Europe, in the historic exhibition "Arte e Contemplazione" at the Palazzo Grassi in Venice. Following her success in Italy and Spain, Bradley travelled the world, passing through Turkey, Afghanistan, India and Nepal, and became fascinated by the Far East. At first, the artist's work shows a self-destructive tendency, but it evolves into works of fresh workmanship, lively colour, extreme fantasy and sympathetic appearance, resulting in works that form part of the English Pop movement. However, in contrast to this positivism, a series of graphics, signs and symbologies can be discerned which allude to criticisms of traditional customs and reflections on the passage of time, characteristics which make Bradley's paintings tremendously interesting works full of nuances.

Published to commemorate the first centenary of modern Olympism, the artists chosen are defined by different pictorial movements and trends.A leading contemporary Greek painter, Alekos Fassianos reached the maturity of his personal style in the 1960s, focusing his work on themes drawn from Greek myths, Fayum portraits, Byzantine icons and shadow theatre. Fassianos began his training at the Athens School of Fine Arts (1956-60), where he was taught by Yannis Moralis. He then moved to Paris thanks to a French government scholarship (1962-64), which enabled him to study lithography with Clairin and Caroline Chariot-Dayez. At the end of this period, the artist decided to remain in the French capital, although from 1974 he lived between Athens and Paris. Since his solo debut in 1959, Fassianos has held exhibitions of his work in Paris, Athens, Thessaloniki, Milan, New York, London, Tokyo and many other cities. Named a knight of the French Legion of Honour in 2013, he is currently represented in major public and private collections in Europe and America.
