The Christine Burgin Gallery has worked with Paul Etienne Lincoln since 1991. Because of the nature of Lincoln's work -- large scale installations which are often the culmination of years of research, incredibly elaborate but often fleeting by design - the Gallery has worked with Lincoln over the years to document and to explicate these complicated, yet elusive projects. To accompany Lincoln's first exhibition, "In Tribute to Madame de Pompadour and the Court of Louis XV" in 1991 the gallery published a large format poster with extensively detailing the research behind this project. Since then, in addition to exhibitions the gallery has catalogues for his large scale projects, – "A Violet Somnambulist" in 2003 and "Sinfonia Torinese" in 2006 and an ongoing series of large scale prints documenting Lincoln's major projects:
