Martial Raysse Dwan Gallery Exhibition Poster (1964)
Exhibition poster published in conjunction with Martial Raysse’s 1964 at the Dwan Gallery, Los Angeles. The poster features black-and-white images configured into an upward-pointing arrow. The images depict Raysse installing and posing with various neon sculptures. Raysse’s second exhibition at Dwan included paintings and sculptures that bridged traditional forms with contemporary concepts, and featured the debut of works like "Spring", a piece exploring the relationship between nature and artifice through the use of neon light.
Raysse is known as a founding member of the Nouveaux Réalistes movement (1960), which utilized ordinary materials to express highly conceptual interpretations of postwar reality in France. He later began incorporating neon light into his work, becoming one of the first artists to experiment with how neon could interact with painting—creating a hybrid between the two media. Item #1847.
