Story / Additional InfoThree facsimile editions of Françoise Gilot’s travel sketchbooks, made between 1974 and 1981, combine the distinct atmospheres of Venice, India, and Senegal with Gilot’s abstract figuration. This collection is complemented by a color lithograph especially created by Gilot for TASCHEN, which reproduces a vivid, colorful page from her travels in Africa. This Art Edition includes a color lithograph, Music in Senegal (2017). Especially created by Gilot for TASCHEN, it elaborates on a sketchbook page she made on the road during her travels in Africa. A highly abstracted group of musicians in a hut, it follows Gilot’s impressions of social gatherings with “the music opening the doors of perception and anticipating remembrance.” The vivid colors depart from the more spontaneous drawings found throughout most of the sketchbooks, instead becoming close to the artist’s signature painting style.
