GEORGES HUGNET - Lot 27
GEORGES HUGNET Graphic Works… Exhibition at the Galerie Furstenberg—Paris, 1954. Vintage poster (on BFK paper), small card (lithograph by Hugnet) pasted as a vignette. 43 x 28.2 cm. Cardboard: 13 x 16.5 cm; poster: 32.6 x 52 cm. Some edges are slightly scorched and show signs of handling. Note: This poster announces the exhibition dedicated to the graphic works of Georges Hugnet at the Galerie Furstenberg in Paris in 1954. A poet, writer, publisher, and artist, Hugnet occupies a unique place in the history of Surrealism, of which he was at once a participant, chronicler, and promoter. The presence of an original lithographed vignette affixed to the poster enhances its appeal, offering insight into the editorial and promotional practices of postwar Parisian galleries. Through his collages, writings, and graphic experiments, Georges Hugnet helped spread the spirit of invention and freedom characteristic of the 20th-century avant-garde. This poster thus serves as a valuable testament to Parisian artistic life in the 1950s.
