Weight: 0.7 lbs.<br> <br> Laurence Gartel (American, b. 1956) is a pioneering digital artist widely recognized as one of the early innovators of the digital art movement. Beginning his electronic work in the 1970s alongside video-art pioneer Nam June Paik, Gartel helped establish computers as a serious artistic medium decades before digital art became mainstream. His work has been exhibited at major institutions including MoMA and is represented in the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History.<br> <br> This item is originally from the collection of liquor icon Michel Roux. One of Mr. Roux’s signature spirits at Crillon was absinthe, the anise-flavored spirit known for its popularity among 19th-century artists like van Gogh and Toulouse-Lautrec. It was banned by the United States in 1912 amid concerns that wormwood, one if its ingredients, which contained thujone, caused hallucinations. In 2000 Mr. Roux introduced a legal absinthe, Absente, which used a sister botanical, Southern wormwood, with only trace amounts of thujone.
