Post War and Contemporary Art

Dimensions variable depending on installation. Overall dimensions are approximately 144 x 130 x 50 inches.

Stored in a custom made crate measuring 100 x 43 x 21 inches.

Work is very fragile. Paper is toned throughout, including some spots of soiling, lightening and discoloration. Rips, tears and holes throughout, of varying degrees - for example, on figure's left shoulder and along right upper arm. Intestine also shows wear at folds with some minor soiling. Work has been repaired in 1993 and again in 2006- a tear at the front top loop was mended with methyl cellulose and additional Kaga Gampi Japanese paper was attached inside the loop to reinforce when hanging object (as per consultation with Kiki Smith). Please request additional images.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
