A Modern Archaeology of Memory: Christian Boltanski’s Three Drawers

Experience the profound resonance of Christian Boltanski’s Attempt at Recreation Three Drawers (1971), a masterpiece that defines the intersection of conceptual art and personal history. This museum-quality reproduction captures the somber, archival aesthetic of the original installation, where Boltanski explored the fragility of human existence through the metaphor of storage and preservation. As a cornerstone of contemporary art, this piece invites viewers to reflect on how we curate our own memories and identities.

Our RedKalion fine art print is meticulously crafted to meet the highest standards of archival longevity. Printed on 250 gsm (110 lb) museum-quality paper, the work features a matte, uncoated finish that provides a natural white depth without distracting glare. This heavy-weight paper ensures that the subtle textures and tonal nuances of Boltanski’s vision are preserved for generations.

Premium Framing and Material Excellence

To complement this significant work, each print is housed in a responsibly sourced black wooden frame made from oak and ash. The frame measures 20mm (0.79") in both width and thickness—a sturdier, more premium profile than standard 14mm gallery frames. Your artwork is shielded by shatterproof plexiglass, providing crystal-clear visibility while ensuring the safety and durability of the piece during transit and display.
