Part of the celebrated Lino-Litho series, Planche IV merges black linocut with lithographic color backgrounds, reflecting Alechinsky’s bold, gestural style. The portfolio was printed in Paris by Clot, Bramsen et Georges and published by Jacques Putman, with this HC edition personally dedicated to him.
In an extraordinary extension of the project, each linocut also served as the basis for a bronze casting, created in collaboration with artist Jean Clerté. These sculptures were cast in a limited edition of 8 + IV artist’s proofs at the Fonderie de cloches de Paris et Bagnolet, a foundry renowned for its bell-making tradition—underscoring Alechinsky’s inventive dialogue between image and material..
The work is in Excellent condition.
