The British artist Jason Martin expands the possibilities of painting with his innovative approach in using unusual materials which serve as paint. He attracted international attention with his large, brushed oil paintings, executed in thin layers of paint with self-made comb-like tools – such as the one being auctioned off. Because of the light bouncing off the shiny surface, experiencing the work in person is like walking towards a sculpture rather than a painting.

“There’s never really any single point to review the work or to experience the work, it’s about moving around. But there is a stillness as well, in that the organisation of the marks all collide into a central or suggested central point. […] When you encounter a work of mine, there is an academic approach to the performative act, the gestural act. I have a series of reduced movements that then compile in a composition. And you also look through it, because there is this implied sense of looking through, this illusion. […] I would suggest that my paintings are a hybrid between that naturalism, that looking through, that perspectival space, that implied pictorial depth and the didactic, academic concerns of abstraction, which are for me physical and arm-led, or I immerse my body into the whole making of the work. And they sit very much in between these two places, these two worlds. [...]”
Jason Martin on the exhibition: Convergence. Thaddaeus Ropac, Seoul Fort Hill, 24.2.-16.4.22

FIRST EDITION OF THE DEFINITIVE WORK ON THE FAMILY OF CATS, in which Elliot describes and illustrates all the species of cats then known. \"Among the Families which constitute the Class Mammalia no more attractive one can be found than that of Felidae, as its members possess in the highest degree a beauty, both of form and coloring, most gratifying to the eye, and are also endowed with physical strength and weapons of offence not surpassed by any known creature now living upon the earth. The Family comprises not only the largest and most ferocious of the beasts of prey, but in which Elliot describes and illustrates all the species of cats then known also the graceful little animal that delights to make its home within man\'s abode\" (Introduction).

FIRST EDITION OF THE FIRST EXHAUSTIVE LUNAR ATLAS, Hevelius\'s four-year observations of the surface and phases of the moon, recorded in his greatest work, accompanied by an account of his instruments and telescopes. \"No finer book on the moon has ever been published. In scores of illustrations, drawn and engraved by the author himself, Hevelius tracked the moon through every phase of an entire lunar cycle, and then incorporated the information gained into three large moon maps... the two other maps, though less often reproduced, are much more splendid examples of lunar cartography. One shows the full moon as it actually appears through the telescope—that is, with no shadows. The other is uniformly (and artificially) shadowed to show the craters as they appear at mid-morning on the moon\" (Ashworth, The Face of the Moon Linda Hall Library p 45).

RUSSIAN ART JOURNAL.:Zhar-Ptitsa/Jar-Ptitza [The Firebird]. Paris and Berlin: Russkoe Iskusstvo, August 1921-January 1926. 14 issues in 13 volumes (No. 4/5 double issue). 4to (315 x 240 mm). Illustrated in color and black and white, with many plates tipped in. Original color lithographed wrappers. Some issues missing spines with pages detached; internal tears and some loss.

A COMPLETE SET OF THE RARE RUSSIAN EMIGRE LITERARY ART MAGAZINE IN ORIGINAL ISSUES, reportedly no more than 300 copies were printed. Supplemental summaries of the numbers were provided in the back in a variety of languages including English. Zhar-ptitsa was the most influential art journal of the flourishing community of exiles who were feverishly trying to keep the culture of Old Russia alive. Due to paper shortages and extensive censorship by the Bolsheviks back in the USSR, the Russian book business was booming in Germany and France. This lavish periodical was the natural successor to S. Diaghilev\'s Mir iskusstva since many of those involved had been members of the World of Art Group and designers for the Ballets Russes. The rich selection subjects and contributors under A. E. Kogan\'s art department embraced L. Bakst, A. Benois, I. Bilibin, M. Chagall, S. Chekhonin, N. Goncharova, B. Grigoriev, B. Kustodiev, M. Larionov, V. Shukaev, K. Somov, S. Sudeikin and many other important artists. Poet Sasha Cherny was literary editor; and such important writers as L. Andreev, K. Balmont, I. Bunin, V. Khodasevich, B. Pilnyak, A. Remizov, N. Teffi, A.N. Tolstoi, B. Zaitsev, and the young Vladimir Nabokov (as \"V. Sirin\") appeared in its pages. Fekula called Zhar-ptitsa \"perhaps the most famous of post-revolutionary art journals, whose contributors threw new light on the development of Russian art at the beginning of the twentieth century.\" According to Vengerov, \"Even separate issues of the magazine, let alone complete sets of its issues, are a great bibliographic rarity.\" Fekula 5742; Vengerov Staraya russkaya kniga 105.
