GÁBOR TÓTH, 1970 – 1980
[mail art from the seventies]
various sizes
printed matter
editions of these items are unknown
splendid condition, slightly aged
rare as set
sold
Hungarian artist Gábor Tóth (1950) makes use of language that meanders between art and non-art, between humor and critical statements. His works are always tiny and ephemeral. Due to that these are not really suitable for a serious art market. Yet they deserve a serious position in the Fluxus art movement of the seventies.
Gábor Tóth’s work realized prices ranging from US$ 133 to US$ 1,211. In 2017 the record price for this artist at auction was set at US$ 1,211.- [sic].

Bengt Lindström’s work is full of monstrous personages with frightening faces. Although the artist had a heavy fauvist colour palette
in this aquatint colours clearly don’t play a role, while the scary part stayed. In spite of the lack of colour this black-and-white print is much more expressionistic than the coloured version shown below.

Self portrait photographed in 1943 by Man Ray. In his fifties Man Ray shaved half his face for the above self-portrait. Francis Naumann has suggested that this act may have referred to Man Ray’s duel identity as an American artist with strong ties in Europe. Man Ray was living in Hollywood at the time he took the photograph (1942), and would return with his wife Juliet to Paris in 1951 to spent the rest of his life in the capital.
