Note du spécialiste

‘Yes, it (lead) already has a presence. Sometimes I would leave the lead in the rain and you would get these amazing oxidized grounds, quite beautiful’
(G. Förg, quoted in D. Ryan, Talking Painting, Karlsruhe 1997, http:/www.david-ryan.co.uk/Gunther0w.html [accessed 1 June 2016]).
