Description
A unique original assemblage created by the celebrated Swiss-born artist Daniel Spoerri.
Signed in pencil within the composition: Daniel Spoerri.
This unique assemblage is a beautiful example of Daniel Spoerri's fascination with memory, transformation and the poetic potential of everyday objects.
This work was included in the exhibition Nouveau Réalisme at the Kunsthalle Krems, Austria, in 2010–2011.
The composition combines an engraved illustration of intertwined hands with carefully selected found objects, including shells, natural fibres, cord, metal elements and organic materials. By bringing together drawing and three-dimensional objects, Spoerri transforms an ordinary image into a richly layered artwork that invites contemplation and multiple interpretations.
Size: approx. 35 x 33 cm.
The work is offered unframed.
Handmade, custom framing is available upon request through our professional framing workshop, offering a wide range of styles, colors, and materials.
Daniel Spoerri (1930–2024) was one of the leading figures of post-war European art and an internationally celebrated pioneer of the Nouveau Réalisme movement. Best known for his iconic "snare-pictures" (Tableaux Pièges) and innovative assemblages, he transformed everyday objects into poetic works that challenged traditional ideas of sculpture and representation.
His works are represented in major museum collections worldwide, including the Centre Pompidou, Paris, the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Tate Modern, London, the Kunstmuseum Bern, and the Museum Tinguely, Basel. Original assemblages by Daniel Spoerri remain highly sought after by collectors for their uniqueness, historical importance and strong association with post-war European avant-garde art.

Presentation
Daniel Spoerri was born in Romania and grew up in Switzerland, where he met Jean Tinguely, and became a dancer at the Bern Opera from 1954 to 1957. He devotes himself to stage direction and stage decor.
Arrived in Paris in 1959, Daniel Spoerri creates "trap paintings": he sticks everyday objects collected in his hotel room on boards. He then joined the group of new realists.
Daniel Spoerri reveals the beauty of objects and assembles pieces that could have a common past. Their assembly seems like a small operation, but therein lies all the art. First the research, then the sorting of the found objects that have a common history and finally the assembly of the parts in the most successful way.
