About This Item
Paris: Librairie Fischbacher, 1931.. [12]pp. plus 30 plates. Small octavo (16.5 x 12.2 cm). White wrapper, printed in black, with wrapper illustrations by Hans Arp. As with other copies we have seen, the lower edges of the textblock and wrapper are trimmed slightly askew. As well, the two center bifolia were never secured by the binding staples and are laid in, and the wrapper is modestly tanned and hand-soiled, internally very good. First edition of this important essay by the Polish poet and art historian/theoretician (1903-1983), published soon after establishing his residence in Paris and his editorial responsibilities on L'ART CONTEMPORAIN. The black & white plates include reproductions of works by Picasso, Cezanne, Monet, Matisse, Braque, Leger, Prampolini, Mondrian, Arp, Ernst, Miro and others. OCLC: 32616379.
