Condition

These works are in very good condition. Close inspection reveals some light wear in places along the edges, handling marks and small creases in isolated places.
The lot is sold in the condition it is in at the time of sale. The condition report is provided to assist you with assessing the condition of the lot and is for guidance only. Any reference to condition in the condition report for the lot does not amount to a full description of condition. The images of the lot form part of the condition report for the lot provided by Sotheby's. Certain images of the lot provided online may not accurately reflect the actual condition of the lot. In particular, the online images may represent colours and shades which are different to the lot's actual colour and shades. The condition report for the lot may make reference to particular imperfections of the lot but you should note that the lot may have other faults not expressly referred to in the condition report for the lot or shown in the online images of the lot. The condition report may not refer to all faults, restoration, alteration or adaptation because Sotheby's is not a professional conservator or restorer but rather the condition report is a statement of opinion genuinely held by Sotheby's. For that reason, Sotheby's condition report is not an alternative to taking your own professional advice regarding the condition of the lot.

拍品資料及來源

With works in the collections of the Tate, MoMA and Centre Pompidou, and an exhibition at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Jiří Kolář has had his share of institutional recognition – yet he is still largely unknown with the general public. The Czech artist and poet developed an original visual language by cutting and rearranging photographic imagery as well as textual collages. The present lot, which comprises eight collages made between 1960 and 1992, offers a great insight into his original practice.
