Henry Miller, Happy Rock
Language: English
Published by University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 2002
ISBN 10: 0226071391 ISBN 13: 9780226071398
First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st. Cloth, 179 pages, illustrations; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Stated First Edition. Fine DJ. A fine copy of the first printing. *** "'In a world like this one, it's difficult to devote oneself to art body and soul. To get published, to get exhibited, to get produced often requires ten or twenty years of patient, intense labor. I spent half my life at it! And how do you survive during all that time? Beg? Live off other people until you're successful? What a dog's life! I know something about that! You're always recognized too late. And today, it's no longer enough to have talent, originality, to write a good or beautiful book. One must be inspired! Not only touch the public but create one's own public. Otherwise, you're headed straight for suicide.' That's Henry Miller's advice for young aspiring artists, as remembered by his very good friend Brassa in this lively book. One of two that Brassa wrote about the man who called himself a "happy rock," this volume covers their lives and friendship from the 1950s to 1973. Over the course of a number of warm, intimate conversations, Brassa and Miller revisit their careers; discuss art, literature, Paris, Greece, Japan, World War II, and more; and consider the lives and works of many others in their circle, including Lawrence Durrell, Henri Matisse, Salvador Dal , Georges Simenon, Andr Malraux, Hans Reichel, Paul Klee, and Amedeo Modigliani. Throughout Miller's zest for life shines through, as do his love of art and his passionate intensity for just about everything he does, from discussing a movie or play he'd just seen to reminiscing about a decades-long love. Brassa 's Henry Miller, Happy Rock presents a vivid portrait of two close friends who thoroughly enjoy each other's company--and just happen to be world--famous artists too." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.

African Royal Court Art
Language: English
Published by University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 1998
ISBN 10: 0226115755 ISBN 13: 9780226115757
First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st. Cloth, xi, 181 pages, illustrations (some colour), maps; 29 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Dust jacket with light shelfwear. Another copy available. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "In this visually stunning work, anthropologist Michele Coquet presents the power and the brilliance of African court arts. Grounding her analysis in the social and historical context of traditional royalty systems, Coquet examines the diverse roles played by artisans, nobles, and kings in the production and use of royal objects. From the precolonial kingdoms of the Edo and the Yoruba, the Ashanti and the Igbo, Coquet reconstructs from a comparativist view the essential cultural connections between art, representation, and the king. More than ornamentation, royal objects embodied the strength and status of African rulers. The gold-plated stools of the Ashanti, the delicately carved ivory bracelets of the Edo-these objects were meant not simply to adorn but to affirm and enhance the power and prestige of the wearer. Unlike the abstract style frequently seen in African ritual art, realism became manifest in courtly arts. Realism directly linked the symbolic value of the object-a portrait or relief-with the physical person of the king. The contours of the monarch's face, his political and military exploits rendered on palace walls, became visual histories, the work of art in essence corroborating the ruler's sovereign might. Richly illustrated and wonderfully detailed, Coquet's influential volume offers both a splendid visual presentation and an authoritative analysis of African royal arts." - Publisher. Size: 4to.

Largesse
Language: English
Published by University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 1997
ISBN 10: 0226771369 ISBN 13: 9780226771366
Paperback. Condition: Fine. viii, 211 pages, illustrations (some colour); 31 cm. English Edition. Exhibition was presented at the Louvre by the Dept. of Graphic Arts, January 20 to April 18, 1994. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Profusely illustrated. *** "In 1990 the Department of Graphic Arts at the Louvre made their holdings available to guest curators for a program called Parti Pris, or 'Taking Sides'. In this program, major cultural figures outside of the discipline of art history organized exhibitions based on the department's collection. Within its first several years, this novel collaboration produced exhibitions curated by philosopher Jacques Derrida and filmmaker Peter Greenaway. Jean Starobinski, noted literary critic and intellectual historian from the University of Geneva, was selected as the third curator in the program. In his exhibition and accompanying essay, Starobinski explores the theme of largesse in its broadest sense. Arguing that gift giving and receiving are fundamental human gestures, he examines graphic and textual representations from the offering of the apple to Eve to Salome's gift of the head of John the Baptist, from the giving of laws to the gift of death. Charity, the poetic gift, and the benefits of Fortune all play a role in Starobinski's extended meditation on the act of donation. Lavishly illustrated and dazzling in its scope and imagination, Largesse is an exemplar of the rich intellectual work that can result from crossing disciplinary boundaries and considering history as a dense network of themes and allusions." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Parti Pris, To What End?; Ch. 1. The Ostentatious Gift; Ch. 2. Fortune; Ch. 3. Charity; Ch. 4. Poetry; Ch. 5. New Children's Battles; Ch. 6. Envois; Appendix. Texts on the Gift / Edited by Regine Bonnefoit. Size: 4to. Collectible.
