More InformationOne of a series of booklets on the work of contemporary artists, adopting the same format as Berggruen's stock catalogues. Penrose's text is poetic in concept: Ces femmes de la taille des ancêtres sereines et amicales échangent des confidences; étendues sur le sol elles tiennent dans leurs bras leurs seins leurs cuisses des nébuleuses du ciel vide." It is reprinted in English in Scrap Book 1900-1981 (See 0001788)."
