Images de Pierres

Giuseppe Penone's *Images de Pierres* (1993) is a series of prints that reflects the Italian Arte Povera master's deep engagement with the natural world, exploring the textures, forms, and metaphysical presence of stone. Published by Centre d'édition contemporaine in Geneva, each work is individually signed, titled, and numbered in pencil, existing in small, intimate editions that underscore their collectible nature. The series exemplifies Penone's meditation on the relationship between the human body and natural materials, inviting viewers to contemplate the passage of time embedded within geological surfaces.

Medium
all signed, titled, dated `93' and numbered 2/24, 3/30, 3/19, 3/24 and 2/19 respectively in pencil (there were also 2 artist's proofs for all), published by Centre d'édition contemporaine, Geneva (all with their inkstamp on the reverse), all unframed.
