Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Near fine. Book. 265 x 210 mm, 64 pp. in printed stapled wraps. Front cover image ('Portrait of Andree Dantu by Richard Hardwick: three phases of a Dantu polaroid light mobile') in colour, contents illustrated with both colour and b/w images. Three issues of Image (usually a 'careers' magazine for young gra…duates) were effectively taken over by important Cambridge academics of the day, all with a specific interest in concrete poetry and kinetic art: Philip Steadman, Stephen Bann and Reg Gadney. The issues of Image dedicated to kinetic and concrete poetry were particularly noteworthy for their commitment to translation and reprinting 'lost' texts, an imaginative use of layout and photography, and enlightening academic essays on their given subjects. This particular issue is entirely dedicated to kinetic art and concrete poetry (as the title suggests), and the editorial (which is idiosyncratically placed in the middle of the publication) reads: 'This issue of IMAGE is largely devoted to Kinetic Art: art, that is, incorporating real movement as opposed to the painted or static illusion of movement.' It is illustrated with a photograph of the editors and contributors - Stephen Bann, Reg Gadney, Frank Popper, Phil Steadman and Citroen - strolling through Paris. The issue features an essay by the concrete poetry specialist Stephen Bann, entitled 'Communication and Structure in Concrete Poetry', which comes with a reprinted letter from Ian Hamilton Finlay to Pierre Garnier, dated September 17th 1963. Translated by Bann are extracts from 'Manifesto for a new poetry, visual and phonic' by the concrete poet Pierre Garnier: 'The word is an element. / The word is a material. / The word is an object.' Also included in this section is a manifesto by Eugen Gomringer, entitled 'from line to consideration', and translated by Mike Weaver. It was 'first printed in augenblick no 2 agis verlag baden-baden 1954'. Works by Augusto de Campos, Ronaldo Azeredo, Decio Pignatari and Haraldo de Campos are also reprinted here. The second academic essay featured is a text by Mike Weaver entitled 'Concrete and Kinetic: the poem as Functional Object', which is illustrated with reproduced typestracts by Dom Sylvester Houedard. Also featured is a text by the editor Philip Steadman, entitled 'Colour Music and the Art of Lumia, and an essay by Reg Gadney entitled 'An Introduction: Kinetic Art', which is illustrated with images of works by Alexander Calder and Alexander Schoffer's Chronus sculptures. There are artist profiles of Frank Malina (by Reg Gadney); Gregoria Vardanega (by Stephen Bann); Martha Boto (by R.G); J-M. Cruxent (by S.B); Andree Dantu (by R.G); Knud Hvidberg and William Soya (by R.G); Nino Calos (by R.G). Condition: near fine (contents fine minor rubbing to covers).

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Very Good +. Book. 265 x 210 mm, 36 pp. in printed stapled wraps. Winter/Spring 1966. Front cover image in colour, contents illustrated with both colour and b/w images. Three issues of Image (usually a 'careers' magazine for young graduates) were effectively taken over by important Cambridge academics of th…e day, all with a specific interest in concrete poetry and kinetic art: Philip Steadman, Stephen Bann and Reg Gadney. The issues of Image dedicated to kinetic and concrete poetry were particularly noteworthy for their commitment to translation and reprinting 'lost' texts, an imaginative use of layout and photography, and enlightening academic essays on their given subjects. Symbiotic of its artistic agenda, this issue brings together a comprehensive, edited selection of the writings of the Groupe Recherche d'art Visuel (Paris, 1960-65) - many of which had hitherto never been published in translation, and the majority of which were first published in ephemeral catalogues or leaflets. Edited and translated by Stephen Bann and Reg Gadney, their introduction to the manifesto-texts of the Groupe Recherche d'art Visuel reads: 'These writings are not a prescription for kinetic art, nor are they sufficient to define the position of the GRAV on the modern scene. They are the product of a radical reappraisal of the relationship between artist, work and spectator and as such they have a unique interest.' From 1960 is a text declaring the aims of the GRAV, entitled 'Act of Foundation'; from 1961: a statement made by GRAV on the occasion of an exhibition of kinetic art at the Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm ('We prefer to consider the artistic phenomenon as an exclusively visual experience on the level of physiology rather than of emotion'); from September 1961: a secondary manifesto entitled 'Enough of Mystification', from 1962: extracts from 'Individual Declarations' by the artists of GRAV; from 1962/3: an extract from a text by Le Parc, entitled 'On the Subject of Art-Spectacle', and a text distributed for the opening of the 3rd Paris Biennale in October 1963; also from 1963, a text entitled ''Instability'-The Labyrith' and a talk by Le Parc at Rimini Congress. A series of questionnaires, from Bann, Gadney and Ohio University, conducted in 1965 (and translated by Annette Kobak), is also included. This issue also features an essay by the art historian and Image contributing editor, Stephen Bann, entitled 'Kinetic Art and Poetry' (a particular attention is given to Ian Hamilton Finlay's kinetic poetry); together with a text by Frank Popper entitled 'Mueller's Machine 'M'', examining the work by Hans-Walter Mueller Machine M, that was shown at the Fourth Biennale of Paris, as well as photographs of Edina Ronay, young actress-daughter of Hungarian gourmet, Egon Ronay. Rare, our last copy. Condition: light wear to front cover, light soiling to left edge of cover and crease to bottom corner, internally fine. Overall: Very good+.
