• With the color and material aesthetics typical of décollages, this is a particularly beautiful copy that oscillates between raw destruction and filigree delicacy.
• At the end of the 1950s, Aeschenbacher joined the Parisian group of artists known as the "Affichistes", who worked according to the principles of Nouveau Réalisme.
• Aeschenbacher's works have been exhibited in renowned museums like the Kunsthalle Basel, the Louvre, Paris, and the Center Georges Pompidou, Paris.
