EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "L Horloge de Demain" a remarkable calligram created by Francis Picabia for the magazine 391 in March 1917. Directed by Picabia himself and published in Barcelona, this piece represents the essence of Dadaism, an avant-garde art movement that emerged during the early 20th century. The calligram is a fusion of visual art and poetry, where words are arranged to form a specific shape or image. In this case, "L Horloge de Demain" takes on a vertical composition with vibrant colors that immediately catch the eye. The intricate lines and curves create an abstract representation of time itself. Picabia's artistic brilliance shines through as he masterfully combines elements of drawing and color to convey his message. Each stroke seems purposeful, contributing to the overall aesthetic appeal of the piece. It is evident that every detail has been carefully considered to evoke emotions and provoke thought. Preserved within a private collection owned by Santiago Ortega, this print allows us to appreciate Picabia's genius from over a century ago. Its historical significance lies not only in its association with Dadaism but also as part of the influential magazine 391. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back in time to witness how artists like Picabia challenged traditional norms and pushed boundaries through their innovative creations. This photograph serves as a testament to their enduring impact on modern art history.
