The artworks are being offered at various Christie’s international salerooms across a range of marquee week sales that started in 2019 and are continuing throughout 2020.

專家說明
Executed in 1963, Bandini is an early example of Jean Tinguely’s celebrated machine sculptures. Also known as ‘metamechanics’, these works defined his output, addressing the relationship between technology and aesthetics during a time of rapid global change. Tinguely was part of the ‘Nouveau Réaliste’ (‘New Realist’) movement founded by Yves Klein and Pierre Restany in 1960. Contemporaneous with the evolution of Pop Art, it sought ‘new ways of perceiving the real’, building on the legacy of Marcel Duchamp by integrating art with objects from everyday life. Conceived at the height of the machine age, Tinguely’s kinetic sculptures were deliberately divorced from functionality; made from scrap materials, their playful movements called into question the nature and purpose of technological progress. The present work coincides with Tinguely’s decision to cover his sculptures in matt black paint, transforming them from raw, industrial apparitions to sleek, otherworldly beings, riddled with curious anthropomorphic charge.
