Characteristic work by Rob Scholte, from his 'Embroidery' series. The principle of the embroidery is that it is turned over and framed, so that a piece of cottage industry actually becomes art. Scholte selects the composition, turns it over (turns it inside out) and signs the whole. This makes it an autonomous work of art by Rob Scholte. You could call it a kind of Popart avant la lettre.
The artwork is provided with a high-quality wooden floating frame. The stickers of the framer (Rojos frame workshop from Waarland) and the liquidation auction are still on it. The whole looks very nice when framed. The work was signed by Scholte afterwards and then pasted on the back of the work. The work is undeniably legitimate; compare it to his other works for sale. This work was exhibited in 2016 in Museum de Fundatie in Zwolle (exhibition: “Rob Scholte – Embroidery Show”).
Included with purchase is the 'Embroidey Show' catalog showing similar work.
