Add to basketSoft Cover. Condition: Near Fine. Text in English. 74 pp. Slightly yellowed page edges. Light rubbing and edge wear to covers. Acclaimed as the greatest English painter of the twentieth century during his own lifetime. Francis Bacon (1909-1992) has left an indelible mark on the art of the last fifty years. The retrospective at t…he Centre Georges Pompidou presents around a hundred works - canvases, triptychs and drawings - and reveals the full force and scope of his painting. whose central and recurrent theme is the human figure. This special issue of Connaissance des Arts follows the career of a singular artist from his early canvases to his last work. A hitherto unpublished article by David Sylvester, the foremost Bacon specialist, and another by Fabrice Hergott, co-curator of the exhibition, throw new light on Bacon's art. Detailed commentaries on twelve key works are also included.

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).

Contact seller4-star sellerHardcover. Condition: g to vg. First edition. Large Quarto. xliii, 277 (1), xxx pp., 116 plates, 32pp., 177 plates. Original pictorial dustjackets over white, blue and black cloth with black lettering on covers and spine. Frontispiece collotype, vol. 1, 4th ed., frontispiece photograph, vol. 2, 2nd ed., double-spread color front…ispiece, vol. 3, 1st ed. The fourth revised edition of volume one contains more than 140 new blocks, many of them illustrating sculptures and drawings which have not hitherto appeared in any publication, and a wealth of new information, largely pertaining to chronology. The style and arrangement of the plates have been radically changed in conformity with the principles followed in the second volume, published in 1955. Volume one contains 255 halftone reproductions of sculptures and 144 drawings and a new frontispiece. The second edition of volume two, 19491954, covers a period in the artist's development notable for large sculptures on a monumental scale and with public theme. These major works are comprehensively illustrated, with a profusion of views and details and in certain cases photographs of earlier stages in their making. Over 160 illustrations are reproduced, and they include a section devoted to the sculptor's drawings which in many instances show his original conceptions for the sculptures. Text and plate sections of the original are preserved virtually intact, an important edition is the catalogue of all the sculpture of the period, compiled by Alan Bowness. Volume three is a magnificent illustrated record of the artist's sculpture in the ten years from the beginning of 1955 to the end of 1964. It reveals the remarkable development in style and a richness and grandeur of production. The illustrations have been the selected by the artist and the editor, Alan Bowness, who has also been responsible for the catalogue, etc. Almost all the photographs, a total of 179 plates, were taken by the sculptor, or under his supervision. Our descriptive text is copied from or closely based on publisher's description. All volumes contain stylish exlibris in red on front free endpapers, respectively inside front cover. Dustjackets with light wear along edges, price clipped and lightly rubbed. Bindings with light wear along edges. Interiors with light age toning along edges not affecting images. Dustjackets in overall good, bindings and interiors in very good condition.

Emphasising Briers' knowledge and connections with established artists, it can be argued that it was ahead of its time, though Zurbrugg's inclu…sion in no. 1 emphasises that it did see itself as a reaction against narrow concrete: "The aim of Pages is to publicise the avant-garde, and by doing so to prove that it does not exist except as a name" (Foreward, Pages No. 1, David Briers). Pages No. 1, Autumn, 1970. David Briers (ed.), 35pp., 210 x 295 mm. Printed black, white and blue on white stock, stapled into colour printed wraps.
