Arman’s ‘Accumulations’ Sculpture and Andy Warhol Screenprints Featured in Upcoming Dane Fine Art Event

Object artist Arman was famous for creating unorthodox sculptures utilizing everyday things. The Nouveau Réalisme co-founder was known to create sculptures known as ‘Accumulations.’ These works were inspired by the Dada movement. Arman’s ‘Accumulations’ sculptures utilize general objects like spoons, hairbrushes, or toy cars. He destroys these objects and assembles them in a way that gives them a new perspective. The upcoming auction from Dane Fine Art presents a sculpture titled Venus Hairspray by Arman. The 1996 bronze sculpture has a silver and blue patina. Another highlight is a 3D screenprint and paper collage titled Tidal Basin by Andy Warhol. It was created for a 1983 Washington Post magazine cover. The auction also showcases Warhol’s screenprints of popular subjects like Campbell’s Soup cans and Marilyn Monroe.

Also featured is a 1995 book consisting of hand-printed intaglios by printmaker Helen Frankenthaler. Valentine for Mr. Wonderful consists of seven intaglios of lithographed poems and images. The handmade paper folio reflects the artist’s interest in Color Field painting and Abstract Expressionism. Items by street artists Mr. Brainwash and BAMBI are also available. Bidders can consider works by Roy Lichtenstein, Keith Haring, Louis Icart, Marc Chagall, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, and Joan Miró in this sale.
