Additional Details: This limited edition print, titled La Grenouille et la Scie, was published by Pace Columbus for an exhibition held at the gallery in 1971. The print is plate signed and not numbered, adding a unique element of authenticity and exclusivity to the piece. La Grenouille et la Scie translates to "The Frog and the Saw" in English.
The title La Grenouille et la Scie suggests a whimsical or surreal theme, which is common in many contemporary artworks. The imagery of a frog (grenouille) and a saw (scie) can evoke various interpretations, often depending on the context provided by the artist's style and the exhibition's theme. In many artistic contexts, such unusual pairings can symbolize a contrast between nature (the frog) and human intervention or industrialization (the saw). See less
