L'Icône Cachée: The Silent Porcelain
Coming soonArchive note
A 1952 Paris exhibition poster for a lost sculptural installation—a life-size porcelain figure draped in silk, head faceless and tilted, holding a cluster of delicate flowers. The archive notes indicate the work was destroyed during a gallery flood in 1954, leaving only this photograph and the poster as evidence of its existence. Speaks to collectors of lost European modernist sculpture and mid-century design mythology.
