This Vera Molnar object-book offers exactly 6,765,201 versions of Montagne Sainte-Victoire (Aix-en-Provence, France).
When a few years ago, Vera Molnar bought a small notebook whose pages were each divided into four strips, Raymond Queneau's opus, One hundred thousand billion poems, may have come to mind. But Vera Molnar set her own rules here. With a gouache pen, using four different colours and four different thicknesses she drew, on about a hundred pages, outlines of Mount Sainte-Victoire so dear to Cézanne's heart.
All in all, this 112-page object book offers exactly 6,765,201 versions of Montagne Sainte-Victoire. If we were only to spend ten seconds on each, we would still needmore than two full years to see them all!
The edition limited to 220 copies has been signed and numbered by Vera Molnar. Interview with Vera Molnar by David Quéré.
