Niki de Saint Phalle
My Love We Wont, 1968
Lithograph and silkscreen on wove paper
Signed and numbered 51/75 in graphite pencil on the front
Frame included: elegantly floated and framed in a museum quality white wood frame with UV plexiglass
From the Brooklyn Museum, which has an edition of this work in its permanent collection:
"Throughout her long and prolific career Niki de Saint Phalle, a former cover model for Life magazine and French Vogue, investigated feminine archetypes and women’s societal roles. Her Nanas, bold, sexy sculptures of the proverbial everywoman, are playful and empowering, while the whimsical lithograph My Love We Won’t offers humorous takes on girlhood obsessions."
The text that accompanies the charming images in the work reads:
"Free of love"
"We won't hold hands anymore"
"We won't kiss each other anymore"
"We won't swim in the Atlantic"
"No more flowers from you"
"No more bloody Mary's with olives"
"We won't take baths anymore"
"New Gun: And I will return to my husband and our dog Caesar and dry their tears"
"Your family portrait: please my love dry their tears and forget me"
"No more TV dinners"
"We won't take that trip we planned" (to Africa, Cape of Good Hope)
"We won't listen to Monteverde anymore"
"We won't have the children we dreamed of"
"We won't live in a house together"
"We won't write anymore love letters"
"When I am 85 and you are 92 will you still send me a present occasionally to show me you still remember me?"
"Last night I had a dream. I dreamt I was a flower and you were a snake and I belonged to you and you belonged to me"
This work is elegantly floated and framed in a hand made museum frame with UV plexiglass. Frame is included.

More about the beloved Niki de Saint Phalle, former Vogue model and wife of Jean-TInguely, recent subject of major retrospective at MOMA PS/1:
Niki de Saint Phalle’s exuberant practice emphasized femininity, performance, and collaboration as it rejected notions of the lone male genius. Saint Phalle is perhaps best known for her “Shooting Paintings”—canvases she made by firing a rifle at paint-filled balloons—and her sculptures of extravagant, voluptuous feminine forms, which she dubbed “Nanas.” Her practice included books, prints, films, theater sets, clothing, jewelry, and even perfume. Saint Phalle was also celebrated for her large-scale public works and architectural activations, which can be found around the world. Her most famous, perhaps, is the Tarot Garden sculpture park in the Tuscan countryside. Saint Phalle’s work belongs in the collections of the Centre Pompidou, the Museum Ludwig, the Stedelijk Museum, the Tate, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, among others. In 2021, MoMA PS1 mounted a major Saint Phalle retrospective. The artist’s work has sold for seven figures at auction.

Niki de Saint Phalle
Niki de Saint Phalle’s art is eclectic and complicated, brave and outspoken. It reveals the unbridled ruminations and opinions of her multifaceted past and transforms them into celebrations of love, life and pure happiness. This transformation reminds us that her work does not simply stand alone, it becomes part of a larger dialogue she created for us to enjoy.
A self-taught sculptor, painter and filmmaker, Saint Phalle made a mark on art history that continues to have an extraordinary dimension. Her work is represented in numerous museums and public collections around the world. In 2000, she received the Praemium Imperiale in Japan, the equivalent of the Nobel Prize for the art world. In 2014, the Grand Palais in Paris exhibited a major restropective of her work that traveled to the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, where it currently resides. Saint Phalle died at the age of 71 in La Jolla, California, in 2002.
