Imprinting fascinated Jean Dubuffet for over forty years and is an integral part of his creative oeuvre. Throughout his life, in certain intense and active phases, he would not cease to explore the range of different techniques that could be utilized in printing and most of all those of lithography, interpreting and inventing new methods, as to better meet his needs.

Created between 1944 – 1984 a selection of the artist’s works were exhibited for the first time at Pera Museum.
Curator: Meira Perry-Lehmann
