Discover this rare original lithograph, hand-signed by Arman (Armand Fernandez, 1928-2005), entitled “Ti-Wara Antelope Crests,” from the portfolio Les Unités Plénières. This striking abstract work reinterprets the legendary mythical spirit of the Ti-Wara antelope from the Bambara culture of Mali in West Africa, merging modern abstraction and ancestral African symbolism in an ideal 29,92 × 21,65 inches (76 × 55 cm) format.

Arman, a major figure of Nouveau Réalisme, developed a passion for African primitive art in the 1950s and amassed a significant collection of tribal works that profoundly influenced his creative output. Here, true to his technique of accumulation, he superimposes and repeats the stylized silhouettes of horns and crests from masks, creating a dynamic rhythm, a sense of dance and fertility that celebrates collective strength and ritual heritage.
