GYSIN, Brion. Original roller grid painting with photographs titled: "Le Dernier Musee" (The Last Museum). One of a series of paintings Gysin did in the late seventies inspired by the view of the Beaubourg from his apartment window. Features a multicolored grid pattern with small photos of the Beaubourg affixed within the grid lines. An interesting work combining painting and photography reflecting Gysin's long-standing preoccupation with cut-up and juxtaposition. Signed and titled by Gysin dated 1977. Tuning in to the Multimedia Age prints an informative essay on Gysin's use of the roller for his grid paintings through the years, and reproduces some works from this series, including one on page 162 that is very similar (but we believe inferior) to the one offered here. Image 12.5" x 11.5" on a 25" x 19" sheet framed slightly larger.  £2500

GYSIN, Brion. Bou Jeloud. Original ink and watercolour study of Bou Jeloud, the famous Moroccan dancer and spiritual leader of the Master Musicians of Jajouka, (ca. 1958). Jeloud is shown dancing in a feathered costume with his spears on the ground behind him. Signed "Brion" in the lower corner and signed in full on the verso. An important drawing reflecting Gysin's passion for the Master Musicians of Jajouka and Bou Jeloud who, as the Pan God, was the principal character in their ceremonies. It was Gysin who introduced the Master Musicians to the world by bringing The Rolling Stones, Ornette Coleman, and William Burroughs to witness their festivities. The Stones label went on to release the album, Brian Jones Presents the Pipes of Pan at Jajouka. Handsomely matted and framed under glass (measures approx. 10.5" x 8" unframed). £2500
