This limited edition print, titled La Grenouille et la Scie, was published by Pace Columbus for an exhibition held at the gallery in 1971. The print is plate signed and not numbered, adding a unique element of authenticity and exclusivity to the piece. La Grenouille et la Scie translates to "The Frog and the Saw" in English.

The title La Grenouille et la Scie suggests a whimsical or surreal theme, which is common in many contemporary artworks. The imagery of a frog (grenouille) and a saw (scie) can evoke various interpretations, often depending on the context provided by the artist's style and the exhibition's theme. In many artistic contexts, such unusual pairings can symbolize a contrast between nature (the frog) and human intervention or industrialization (the saw).

About the Artist

Alexander Calder

Alexander Calder (1898–1976) was a pioneering 20th-century artist known for combining abstract surrealism and biomorphic imagery. He invented the mobile, a hanging structure set in motion by the wind, which greatly influenced the art world. Calder was also skilled in jewelry, tapestry, stage design, and various forms of printmaking and painting. A trained engineer, he began his artistic career after studying at the Art Students League in New York. Inspired by the circus, he created playful, dynamic mobiles that redefined the possibilities of sculpture.
