拍品专文

Barbara Bloom is a visual and conceptual artist who creates obsessive and object-rich installations meant to raise and discuss ethical and philiosophical issues. She designed the 'Lolita' rug for the centennial of writer Vladimir Nabokov's birth in 1999, as part of an installation recreating the writer's library. One room of this exhibition was filled with covers of different translations of his most famous and controversial novel Lolita. The present lot's minimal design is directly based on the author's first edition of the novel, which was initially banned in the United States.
