Since 1989, the Musée du Louvre and the Réunion des Musées Nationaux have been commissioning contemporary artists to create engraved plates for Chalcographie, which has the exclusive right to print any number of proofs.
Very different trends in contemporary art are represented. Geneviève Asse rubs shoulders with Georg Baselitz, Pierre Courtin, Jean-Pierre Pincemin, Pat Steir, Jean-Michel Alberola, Robert Morris, Louise Bourgeois, Markus Raetz, Pierre Alechinsky and Agathe May.
American artist Robert Morris was born in Kansas City in 1931. From 1961 onwards, he used plywood to create "unitary forms", painted grey to focus attention on the volumes. He also used incised felt panels in 1967, then produced Land Art works. He also practiced photography, film and engraving.
