Artist's book with original screen print in slipcase. - "Pierre Klossowski/Pierre Zucca: living money (1982)" - Each print is overpainted with gold color - each work is therefore unique // Life 1 by Rosemarie Trockel, created in 2005, is a silkscreen print that revisits and manipulates a famous Life magazine cover from November 2, 1964, featuring actress Shirley Eaton in her iconic gold-painted role from the James Bond film Goldfinger. Trockel’s work overlays the original imagery with gold paint, making each print in the limited edition series a unique piece. The deliberate use of metallic gold emphasizes the themes of glamour, commodification, and the objectification of women in popular culture. By altering this classic image, Trockel critiques the allure and fetishization present in media representations of femininity. The gold overlays transform the piece, merging nostalgia with contemporary commentary on identity and societal values.

What is abstract art?
Abstract art uses form, shape, line, and color to create a visual experience without attempting to represent external reality. The composition exists independently of the world's visual references, focusing on expressing ideas and emotions through non-representational means.
