Bloise. Original color aquatint, 1980. 50 signed & numbered impressions on Ingres paper. This is a horizontal variant of the figure employed vertically in Dode Rouge and Dode, where the figures seem to be either leaping or falling. Here the figure seems to be floating in an ocean of water (or amniotic fluid). In each case, Garache has made a new plate and slightly varied the image. Image size: 447x542mm. Price: $1450.

Sauvechane. Original color aquatint with etching, 1980. 50 signed & numbered impressions on chiffen de Larroque paper. During the first three years of the 1980s, Garache experimented in printing on very absorbant colored drawing papers, often handmade, starting with three red on orange works, two of which we present here. Image size: 422x540mm. Price: $1350.

Naisse. Original color aquatint, 1980. 50 signed & numbered impressions on hand-made red-ochre Moulin de Laarroque paper. Illustrated in the catalogue of the 1985 Wesleyan University Museum Garache exhibition. In French, the word for birth is "naissance"; Garache's title reminds us of our first head-first journey from darkness into light (others may include encounters with ice or banana peels, falling head-over-heels in love, and the final leap we take into eternity). Image size: 545x440mm. Price: $1350.
