Softcover. Condition: vg to fine. Facsimile edition. 800/1000. Quarto. Unpaginated. 6pp (text), 80pp (photographs), (2)pp. Original photo-illustrated dust-jacket over blind wrappers, with blue lettering on cover and spine, housed in gray cloth clamshell box with black lettering on paper label laid to debossed square on cover; black lettered paper label on spine. Facsimile reproduction of "Paris" by Moshé Raviv-Worobeichic (Moï Ver) from copy No. 1 of the first edition published in 1931 by Editions Jeanne Walther. Introduction by Futurist Fernand Léger. Facsimile edition of "this revolutionary work which introduced Moï Ver to the world is a striking tour de force of photomontage utilizing Bauhaus style photography and design. Its 80 pages of avant-garde photomontages evoke a modern form of Paris through his visualizations. The method in which Moï Ver chose to present his material, in its kaleidoscopic layering and frenzied repetitiveness, emphasizes an experimental approach to picture-construction. In this sense, Paris remains the author's quintessential avant-garde book object. The jacket's front cover superimposes factory smokestacks upon a classic stone colonnade, thus setting up familiar juxtapositions: art and industry, antique and modern, beauty and banality. Moï Ver's Paris is a metropolis pulsating with fast-paced daily life, moving almost out of control. Cobblestone streets, bustling crowds, facades, railway tracks, bridges, the glittering river, and countless monuments shift and shatter here" (Andrew Roth: "The Book of 101 Books," pp. 70-71). It is interesting to note that Karl Lagerfeld's facsimile edition of this work features the photographs in a different order, which seems to indicate that the legendary designer's copy was at some point disbound, with pages mixed up, and rebound without following the original pagination. Provenance: the legacy of French painter Charles Marcel Jean Picart Le Doux (1902-1982). Text in French.…

Brossura. Condition: nuovo. Dust Jacket Condition: nuovo. prima edizione, edizione speciale. One of the most important (and rarest) photobooks in the history of the medium, Moï Ver's Paris, first published in 1931 by Éditions Jeanne Walter, was avant-garde in its layered photos of the city's streets and industry, not to mention its graphic layout. Yet tragedy soon struck: 95% of production was destroyed by a flood of the Seine with only around 40 books surviving, of which the publisher's archival copy found its way into Karl Lagerfeld's private collection. This exceptional copy was scanned for the painstaking 2004 facsimile re-print of Paris, published by Edition 7L and produced by Steidl in a limited print-run of 1,000 copies. Gerhard Steidl's challenge was to recreate the gravure printing of the original book in offset technology, a process for which he registered a patent and experimented for over three years. To ensure the longevity of printing and binding quality, Steidl produced at the time a "pilot series" of books, identical to the long since sold-out run of 1,000 copies. This series of just over 400 copies—forgotten in our warehouse and recently rediscovered—are the last copies of a facsimile claimed by the New York Times to be so close to the original, that future generations would not be able to differentiate them. This copy is number 170/1000.…

Simultaneously one of the greatest avant-garde photobooks and one of the most insightful Parisian paeans; Parr & Badger remark on the absolute gulf that stands between the dynamism of Moï Ver's Paris?with its complex photomontage techniques and kinetic layout?and the conservative stillness of Atget, whose monograph on the city was published, remarkably, just one year prior.

Edition 7L, 2002 Steidl 2002. 22,3 x 29,3 cm. 80 Seiten. Mit 80 Schwarzweiß-Tafeln. In Original Leinenkassette. In 'Paris', seinem herausragenden Avantgarde-Buch aus dem Jahr 1931, verbindet Moi Ver ein dynamisches Montageprinzip mit einer ausgeklügelten graphischen Gestaltung. Er definierte jede Doppelseite als Sinneinheit, die er so ausfüllte, daß jedes Umblättern nicht nur zu immer neuen Überraschungen führte, sondern das Buch insgesamt eine spannungsgeladene Rhythmisierung erhielt. Die Bilder dieses Bandes zeigen auf eindringliche Weise den Alltag auf den kopfsteingepflasterten Straßen im Paris der zwanziger Jahre. Doch Moi Ver entwickelte durch kaleidoskopische Überlagerungen und hektische Repetition eine ganze eigene, genuine Form der Umsetzung. Er stellte die experimentelle Bildkonstruktion ganz in den Dienst der sinnlichen Steigerung: Der Betrachter, der durch diese Seiten wandert, bekommt Lärm, Licht und Geruch, die Sinfonie der Großstadt förmlich zu spüren. - Moi Ver (Moshé Raviv-Vorobeichic) wurde 1904 in Vilnius, Litauen geboren, wo er Malerei studierte. 1927 nahm er am Bauhaus in Dessau Unterricht bei Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky und Joseph Albers und ging dann nach Paris, um an der Ecole de photo et du cinéma zu studieren. Etliche Fotobuchprojekte ließen sich in dieser Zeit nicht umsetzen, so daß er sein Geld als Fotoreporter verdiente. 1934 wanderte er nach Palästina aus, seit 1950 widmete er sich wieder der Malerei. Moi Ver starb 1995. - Limitierte Auflage von 1000 numerierten Exemplaren. Beiliegt: Verlagssprospekt mit Fotos der Erstausgabe. Verlagsfrisch originalverpackt. 80 photographies de Moi Ver. In original publisher's slipcase. Introd. by Fernand Leger. Reprint. "The book that introduced Moi Ver to the world if exhilaratingly eccentric, definetely avantgarde".
