Julio Le Parc’s Kinetic Installation and Banksy’s Monochromatic Screen Print Come to Auction With Gray’s Auctioneers LLC

Argentina-born artist Julio Le Parc is a pioneer in modern Op Art and kinetic art. A founding member of Groupe de Recherche d’Art Visuel, he experiments with light and abstraction. Continuel Lumiere – Colonne Lumineuse (1960 – 63), an installation comprising wood, metal and kinetic electric motor, is a key highlight of the upcoming Modern and Contemporary Art sale, presented by Gray’s Auctioneers LLC. In this work, Le Parc combines light with movement and space to create elements of kinetic art. The installation comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from Atelier Julio Le Parc and also features a “Howard Wise Gallery” label on the underside of the pedestal. Another noteworthy work is British street artist Banksy’s Pulp Fiction (2004), a screen print in black and yellow on wove paper. The pseudonymous artist is known for such grainy and monochromatic prints dealing with various political and social themes.

Memories of Surrealism by Salvador Dalí also leads the listings. This lot is a set of 12 etchings with portfolio on colored lithographs on Japan paper by the Spanish Surrealist artist. These striking images with outlandish depictions exemplify Dalí’s technical mastery and precision in draftsmanship.
