Condition

The support appears to be sound. There are some light scuffs and scratches to the aluminium shapes, most probably the result of insensitive cleaning. There is a very small scuff with some possible associated paint loss in the lower right corner of the leftmost red shape. There is some light surface dirt throughout and some studio matter. Subject to the above the work appears to be in very good overall condition. The work is held within the Artist's wooden frame and further plexiglass case. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
