Harold Chapman (1927-2022) The Discovery Of A New Dish, circa 1962 collage on portfolio board, signed lower right Chapman and indistinctly dated 196?, also signed by the artist in black marker on reverse, together with mathematical sums in pencil, 15 x 40 x 2cm (6 x 15 3/4 x 3/4in) Footnotes: Provenance Acquired directly from the artist by the vendor. Harold Chapman was born in Deal, Kent and as a very young boy developed a passion for photography. This he pursued and in 1956 he moved to Paris, where he was to document daily life with his camera. He took a room in a rather run-down hotel in the Latin Quarter, at 9 Rue Git-le-Coeur. It became a hub for artists, musicians and writers, particularly for the so-called Beat Generation; at various times, residents included Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and William Burroughs and the hotel became known as The Beat Hotel. Residents were allowed to decorate their rooms in their own style and if the rent was sometimes hard to find, they paid the owner, the formidable Madame Rachou, with paintings and manuscripts. When the hotel finally closed in 1963, Chapman was the last to leave. It is believed that the collage offered in this Lot, and Pigalle (also offered in this sale), are amongst just a handful of such works created by Chapman. This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: AR AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.
