Alfred L. COPLEY

S.n., s.l. (Paris) s.d. (ca 1950), 11x8,5cm, 5 négatifs en plastique & 1 en verre.


[NEW YORK SCHOOL] Alfred L. COPLEY

Collection of six photographic negatives showing haemorrhages under a microscope
 
[Paris ca 1950] | 11 x 8.5 cm  |  5 plastic negatives & 1 glass
 

Collection of six photographic negatives (5 on plastic and 1 on glass) showing haemorrhages under a microscope made in the 1950s by Alfred L. Copley in his Parisian laboratory. Each negative, except one, is accompanied by a technical sheet on Copley's laboratory letterhead.
 
Under the pseudonym L. Acopley, this scientist and artist from the School of New York produced emblematic works of abstract expressionism. A doctor by training, he was particularly interested in hemorheology, in other words the study of the flow properties of blood. The negatives that we have to offer are a valuable testimony to his research and were an undeniable inspiration for his pictorial works.
 
His works today are preserved at the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo, at the Art Institute of Chicago, at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
