Michelangelo Pistoletto- I am the third
\Artist: Michelangelo Pistoletto
Technique: Serigrafia in cornice\Signature: Hand signed
Michelangelo Pistoletto - large-sized serigraph on premium Arches paper, dated 1980. Signature and number 99/100 in pencil by the artist. Sheet size: 106. 7 x 73. 7 cm. In very good condition. Shipped without frame. A regular certificate by the gallery will be provided. Professional packaging and fast trackable shipping via DHL express courier. In this unique autobiographical serigraph by Michelangelo Pistoletto, the artist reconfigures a source image of his father, Ettore P. Olivero, in three different compositions. While distinct from his typical mirror works, this graphic exercise involves a similar sense of reflexivity, exercised on a more personal level. Delicate script statements like "I am the third", "self-portrait through my father", "55 years inside the mirror", and "I am the bridge" appear on the surface, invoking notions about legacy and family identity.
