Miodrag Djuric aka DADO [Montenegrin] (1933-2010) Hospital, circa 1976-1980 Gouache over aquatint and drypoint. Signed at foot. 48.5 x 37.5 cm Provenance : Sale by Me Collin du Bocage, Hôtel Drouot, Paris, May 11, 2012, no. 88. This engraving belongs to a set of fifteen plates designed to illustrate an edition of the Book of Job. When the project was abandoned, Dado took over the entire gouache print. An exhibition of this set was held in 1979 at Galerie Isy Brachot, in Basel and Knokke. Many of the works were later used in collages, so that very few of the enhanced etchings have survived. Today, these pieces are extremely rare. We would like to thank Mrs. Amarante Szidon and Mr. Pascal Szidon for the information they provided.
