Hardcover, pictor. boards, 260pp., 23.5x29.5cm., richly illustr. in col. a,nd b/w., as new. French edition. Exhibitioncatalogue. ISBN 9782070118984. Comedien, auteur de pieces et d?? operettes, journaliste et ecrivain, Sacha Guitry (1885-1957) fut aussi un photographe, un dessinateur et un publicitaire de talent. Cineaste original et inventif, revendique par la Nouvelle Vague, il s?? est interesse tres tot aux nouveaux medias que sont la radio et la television. Paradoxe d?? un artiste faconne par l?? esprit 1900, mais qui sut prendre au XXe siecle ce qu?? il avait de plus moderne. Marie a cinq reprises, Guitry n?? a jamais cesse de gommer la frontiere entre sa vie sur les planches et sa vie privee, s?? inspirant de celle-ci pour une grande part de ses pieces et de ses films. A l?? exemple de son pere, Lucien Guitry, l?? un des plus grands acteurs de la Belle Epoque, il cotoie hommes d?? Etat, intellectuels et artistes de son temps. Porte a l?? admiration et a la reverence, croyant au genie de la France, il conserve les traces de tous ses "grands hommes" dans la collection qu?? il rassemble en son hotel particulier de l?? avenue Elisee-Reclus. A travers les contributions d?? une vingtaine d?? auteurs d?? horizons divers et un corpus iconographique de deux cent cinquante documents inedits, ce catalogue d?? exposition fait revivre une oeuvre eclectique, nourrie d?? une curiosite encyclopedique. 0 g.
