Description: This unique work by Bernard Aubertin, master of fire and a central figure in the ZERO movement, features a poster depicting the iconic pop-culture figure Marilyn Monroe in her most iconic pose. Aubertin intervenes directly on the poster with actual burns, allowing the fire to pass through the image and transform its surface. The traces of combustion—dark marks, textured openings, worn areas—become an integral part of the composition, creating a powerful dialogue between pop culture and radical gesture. The artist’s autograph, accompanied by the date 2010, confirms the work’s authenticity and places it in the mature phase of his practice, when Aubertin was experimenting with unconventional supports and iconic images from visual culture.
