The great achievements of the Alitalia airline between 1960 and 1961 also comprise the exact period in which the nucleus of the entire collection was formed. The idea of bringing works of art on board aircraft was Corrado Cagli’s, who had to garner the support of engineer Bruno Velani. He had two clear objectives: to make the flight more pleasant by stimulating the traveller\'s aesthetic sensibilities and to disseminate 意大利 artistic culture abroad. Cagli, helped by his friend and gallery owner Bruno Herlitzka, directly commissioned some of the paintings exhibited in the aircraft from the most talented young artists.

[...] Taken as a whole, the collection constitutes a rare compendium of what was happening mainly between 1954 and 1962, thus documenting a good part of the major trends in the 意大利 art world (Burri, Fontana, Gruppo degli Otto, Forma 1, etc.).

(Rottluff/Chemnitz 1884–1976 Berlin)
Blumenstillleben, 1963, signiert SRotluff, von fremder Hand datiert/nummeriert 637, Aquarell, Gouache auf festem Papier, 70 x 50 cm, gerahmt

Provenienz:
Frankfurter Kunstkabinett, Hanna Bekker vom Rath, Frankfurt am Main
Privatsammlung, Deutschland - dort im Jahre 1967 erworben.

Karl Schmidt-Rottluff gründet im Jahr 1905 gemeinsam mit Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Erich Heckel und Fritz Bleyl die Künstlergemeinschaft „Brücke“, deren Stil für den deutschen Expressionismus prägend werden sollte.

Im Laufe seiner Schaffenszeit entwickelt Schmidt-Rottluff eine zunehmend reduzierte und geometrische Formensprache. Der Künstler erreicht ein hohes Maß an formaler und farblicher Abstraktion, verliert aber nicht den Bezug zur Wirklichkeit. Als Mäzenin und wichtigste Unterstützerin seiner Kunst tritt zwischen den beiden Weltkriegen Hanna Bekker vom Rath hervor. Sie ist selbst Malerin und Sammlerin, was sie dazu veranlasst, in späteren Jahren ihre eigene Galerie zu eröffnen. Als Schmidt-Rottluff von den Nazis verfemt wird und Malverbot erhält, bietet sie ihm Zuflucht und ein Atelier in ihrem Blauen Haus in Hofheim am Taunus. In der Berliner Wohnung in der Regensburger Straße organisiert sie bis 1943 heimliche Ausstellungen für die verbotene, als entartet gebrandmarkte, expressionistische Kunst und hilft, Bilder in Sicherheit zu bringen. 1947 eröffnet Hanna Bekker vom Rath das Frankfurter Kunstkabinett, deren Provenienz die beiden hier angebotenen Arbeiten entstammen. Beide Aquarelle sind Schmidt-Rottluffs Spätwerk zuzuordnen. Sie zeigen, dass der Künstler sich bis ins hohe Alter auch inmitten der beginnenden abstrakten Tendenzen der Nachkriegsjahre stets der Gegenständlichkeit und seinem Stil treu blieb.

(Gabrovo, Bulgaria 1935–2020 New York)
Wrapped Snoopy House (Collage), 2004, signed, dated Christo 2004, cloth, threads, charcoal, pencil, color crayon, paint and adhesive tape on cardboard, 61.2 x 55 cm,
framed under plexiglass

The wrapped Snoopy House is registered in the Christo and Jeanne-Claude Archives, New York.

We are grateful to Jonathan Henery, Christo and Jeanne-Claude Archives, New York, for his scientific support in cataloguing the work.

Provenance:
Studio of the artist
Collection of the printer and fabricator Jack Lemon, Chicago
Private collection, 德国y

Literature:
This work is the prototype for the multiple, published by Schulz Museum, Santa Rosa, California see: Matthias Koddenberg, Jörg Schellmann: Christo and Jeanne-Claude: Prints and Objects. Catalogue Raisonné, p. 213, no 188

Charles M. Schulz (1922-2000) was the cartoonist of the globally successful comic series \"Peanuts\". The 美国 author and illustrator portrayed 美国 suburban life from the perspective of a group of children in the daily comic strips, which ran for decades. Peanuts was special in that it combined pointed wit with philosophical reflection.

Most of the comic strips focus on the main characters Charlie Brown and his dog Snoopy. Snoopy, the white dog with the black floppy ears, is now considered an integral part of our popular culture.
Snoopy lives in a kennel in Charlie Brown\'s garden. There, the beagle spends most of his time lying lazily on the roof of his hut, the so-called Snoopy Dog House, pondering his philosophical thoughts while waiting for his next meal.

In 1975, Charles M. Schulz met the packaging artists Jeanne-Claude and Christo at a discussion group in Colorado. The cartoonist then paid tribute to the artist couple by creating a Peanuts comic strip in 1978 in which Christo wraps Snoopy‘s House in fabric. In the comic strip, Snoopy wonders what Christo will cover next and finds his house wrapped at the end of the sequence. Christo returned the cartoonist\'s compliment by turning the comic image into reality decades later, designing a life-size, three-dimensional doghouse for the Charles M. Schulz Museum and wrapping it in tarpaulin, polyethylene and rope.
The work offered here is an original collage with real fabric wrapping, created by Christo in 1994 as a prototype for the later multiple. The multiple is number 188 in the catalogue raisonné.
This original work came from the estate of printer Jack Lemon, who founded his life\'s work, the Landfall Press, in Chicago in 1970. Lemon and his team printed lithographs by Christo, Philip Pearlstein and Sol LeWitt, among others.

MUNDINUS (DI LUZZI, MONDINO). 1275–1326.:MELLERSTADT, MARTINUS, editor. c.1455-1513. Anathomia Mundini emendata per doctorem melerstat. [Leipzig: Martin Landsberg, 1493.]
4to (200 x 140 mm). 40 leaves, 34 lines, title with full-page woodcut of an anatomical scene. Modern calf antique. Inner margin of title neatly reinforced, tiny repair to blank outer margin of last leaf, illegible old library stamp to lower margin of title page, scattered light browning, mostly marginal.

FIRST ILLUSTRATED EDITION OF THE FIRST DEDICATED ANATOMY BOOK. \"The first modern book devoted solely to anatomy ... Mundinus re-introduced human dissection, which had been neglected for 1500 years before him; he was the most noted dissector of his period, and he set forth the medieval anatomical vocabulary, deriving it mainly from Arabic\" (Garrison). Mondino de\' Luzzi, professor at Bologna, is considered to be the founder of anatomy in the Middle Ages. His treatise remained popular until the beginning of the 16th-century and appeared in multiple editions.

\"The subject of anatomy was not taught either by lectures or by dissection in the universities at the middle of the fifteenth century. An occasional \'anatomy\' was held, but the neglect of the subject is well illustrated by the absence of anatomical books. There is only one in the list, that of Mundinus . . . Mundinus was a professor at Bologna from 1306 to 1326, and was the first to teach anatomy from the subject, usually the corpse of a condemned criminal; but there is the record of a procedure in 1319 against four medical students for body-snatching. His Anatomia, written in 1316, was for two hundred years the popular text book\" (Osler).

In the introduction of the book, Mundinus says, \"proposui meis scholaribus in medicina quoddam opus componere, \'I have proposed to compose a work in medicine for my scholars.\" The work \"met a need universally felt just at that time and commended itself for its brevity, conciseness, and completeness, as well as for the fact that it taught for each separate organ the necessary anatomic technique, as. for example, in the first chapter: \'Situato itaque corpore vel homine mortuo per decollationem vel suspensionem supino\', etc., \'accordingly, laying out the body of a man dead by decapitation or hanging, etc....\" (Choulant).
