CONDITION: Nice copy in the original black cloth in gilt and copper in first issue jacket complete with $7.95 price slight surface wear to jacket with wrinkle at top; book has been recased with new endpapers; some light staining to top and bottom edges of text. Man Ray born Emmanuel Radnitzky 1890-1976 American painter photographer and conceptual artist active in France a leading light of the Dada and Surrealist movement. Jess McKinley's obituary in the New York Times offers a brilliant look back at Goodman's career: 'In an era when movies like 'Sweet Smell of Success' made Broadway seem like the most glamorous and gritty terrain in entertainment Mr. Goodman was as reliable a presence as broken hearts and dreams come true. From 1939 when he started his career to 1961 Mr. Goodman represented more than 50 Broadway productions including eight shows in 1960 alone. Over the years Mr. Goodman would act as a booster and sometimes as a baby sitter for every type of show person and show personality from the volatile genius Jerome Robbins of 'Gypsy' to the delicate ingénue Audrey Hepburn in 'Gigi' in 1951 to the predictably haunted playwrights William Inge and Clifford Odets among others. Summing up his career in his unpublished memoir Mr. Goodman started with an adage about the publicity game: 'You don't get paid for the work you do; you get paid for the grief you take.' Mr. Goodman seemed to believe that but only to a point. 'Still and all' he wrote 'there's worse ways to make a living'.'B/w Illustrations. Atlantic Monthly / Little Brown hardcover

193721205811937. Paris: Jeanne Bucher 1937 4to. Original pictorial red and white wrappers lettered in red to spine; pp. 176 30 with pictorial title and 66 full-page illustrations by Man Ray; pages partially uncut; very minor creasing to lower corners and spine a little frayed otherwise near fine copy; author's presentation inscription to half-title 'a Georges Mouton tres amicalement Paul Eluard' see below.First edition number 319 of 650 copies printed on Chester verge of a total edition of 675 copies presented by Eluard to the Surrealist writer Georges Mouton. Les mains libres is the second collaborative work between Man Ray a pioneer of the Surrealist movement and Paul Eluard poet and one of the movement's founders. During the 1930s Man Ray made numerous drawings in Paris and the South of France. He shared them with Eluard who requested to keep them temporarily. Adhering to the Surrealist tradition the poet 'illustrates' the images not the opposite: upon Man Ray's return Eluard had paired each drawing with a poem. This collaboration resulted in the publication of Les mains libres featuring fifty-four illustrations by Man Ray facing as many poems by Eluard and three appendices 'Sade' 'Portraits' and 'Details' which include Man Ray's portraits of Pablo Picasso Andre Breton and Eluard. Provenance: This copy was presented by Eluard to the writer Goerge Mouton. Connected to Surrealist circles in the 1930s Mouton was a member of the Contre-Attaque group led by Georges Bataille and Andre Breton during 1935-1936. unknown

19372467<p>Paris Éditions GLM 1937. MAN RAY. La Photographie n'est pas L'Art. Paris: Éditions GLM 1937. Slim octavo 17 loose leaves in original flexible blue cloth portfolio original black die-cut wrapper. First edition of this landmark treatise with 12 full-page halftones of Man Ray's distinctive photographs 'regarded by some as amongst the greatest of the 20th century' Parr & Badger. Jean Cocteau called him 'the poet of the darkroom.' 'It was with Man Ray's arrival in Paris in the summer of 1921 when Dada was at its height that photographic experimentation temporarily leaderless after the disastrous war took a decisive new direction' Frizot 442. 'Man Ray's work introduced a particular note to Dadaism since he used photography and recognized early on that this medium could reproduce the effects of object-based art in two-dimensional form. Photography was in a position to preserve the ordinary and to unleash surreal effects' Icons of Photography 26. 'Although he incorporated photography into his Dadaist practice much of his photographic activity was given over to conventional portrait and fashion commissions. This rankled with him and 'photography is not an art' was a constant theme in his work. La Photographie n'est pas L'Art is one of the most enigmatic yet advanced of all his books. It can be taken as a summation of his experiments in photography and might be said to be his photographic swansong' Parr & Badger 108-09. With text by André Breton. See Roth 80-81 86-87.

192148774Paris.: Au Sans Pareil. 1921 12 Janvier. Folio. 277 x 212 mm. Drop-head title and printed text recto and verso in French with typical dada typography manicules and type variation imprint and list of signatories at foot of verso. A very fine example never folded of this scarce iconoclastic and blasphemous dada manifesto an excellent specimen of dada typography.Tzara's 1921 restatement of dada had a very serious purpose: to reinvigorate and revitalise dada. Tzara was to some extent successful and dada continued albeit with the same troubles that prompted the issue of this manifesto. The document is an outstanding example of the typographical caprice and linguistic inventiveness that made dada so intriguing and appealing. The use of various other schools of art Cubism Expressionism Simultaneism Futurism Unanism Neo-Claissicism Ultraism Creationism Vorticism and Imagism to underline dada's point or rather its lack thereof is classic. Tzara's most iconoclastic and blasphemous slogans were taken up by Van Doesburg for his own later dada poster produced in conjunction with Schwitters 'kleine dada soirée': 'DADA EXISTE DEPUIS TOUJOURS / LA SAINTE VUERGE DÉJÀ FUT DADAÎSTE!'This manifesto was truly international as noted at the head of the sheet: 'Les Signataires de ce manifeste habitent la France l'Amérique l'Espagne l'Allemagne l'Italie la Suisse la Belgique etc. mais n'ont aucune nationalité.'The signatories as listed were: 'E. Varèse Tr. Tzara Ph. Soupault Soubeyran J. Rigaut G. Ribemont-Dessaignes M. Ray sic F. Picabia B. Péret C. Pansaers R. Huelsenbeck J. Evola M. Ernst P. Eluard Suz. Duchamp M. Duchamp Crotti G. Cantarelli Marg. Buffet Gab. Buffet A. Breton Baargeld Arp W. C. Aresnberg L. Aragon.''In 1921 Tristan Tzara found himself battling to sustain Dada's declining popularity. Aesthetic political and social differences among the movement's most prominenet members shook Dada at the doundation. In line with Dada's emphasis on easy distribution Tzara created this one-page flyer presenting a condensed more direct iteration of the Dada Manifesto . The text's inconsistent typefaces orientation and size embody the disorientation and randomness at the heart of the Dadaist philosophy.' From the catalogue of the Art Institute of Chicago.'Dada fait ici le choix d'une composition graphique et d'une typographie affranchies des traditions use de termes saugrenus n'ayant aucun lien logique entre eux recourt aux antonymes «oui = non» aux répétitions «jamais jamais jamais» s'autointerroge «Que fait DADA» affirme et se contredit dans le même temps . La mise en page les différentes tailles de caractères et les polices d'écriture confèrent à l'ensemble un rythme singulier fait d'accélérations de ralentissements de pauses autant d'éléments qui construisent un parcours de lecture heurté discontinu à l'issue duquel renaîtra peut-être un «homme nouveau» purgé de tout espèce de culture.'

29081Paris circa 1950. 1 tirage sur carte d'après-guerre signé « Man Ray » à la mine de plombe en angle inférieur droit. . L'épreuve est signée Man Ray à la mine de plomb en angle inférieur droit et contient au dos la mention de la main de Char « René Crevel ». Ce tirage constitue l'un de ceux que Man Ray a fourni dans les années 50-60 à ses amis proches. Un tirage figurait dans la vente Breton 2003 n° 5106 identique à celui-ci – sans être signé. C'est la seule épreuve signée connue : ce tirage constitue l'un de ceux que Man Ray a fourni dans les années 1950-1960 à ses amis proches. Un tirage figurait dans la vente Breton 2003 n° 5106 identique à celui-ci - mais non signé. Notre épreuve est celle de René Char avec une note au verso de la main du poète. Le suicide de Crevel le frappa douloureusement. Des années plus tard il avouera : « Je n'ai pu depuis la mort de ce frère précieux relire un seul de ses ouvrages. C'est dire combien je m'ennuie de lui de l'éclat de sa présence des conquêtes de sa pensée dont il était prodigue. C'est l'homme parmi ceux que j'ai connus qui donnait le mieux et le plus vite l'or de sa nature. Il ne partageait pas il donnait. » Toutes les autres épreuves recensées de ce portrait iconique sont vierges de la signature de Man Ray et souvent dans des tirages tardifs réalisés par Gassman. Lorsque Pierre Paraf le directeur de La République rend hommage à René Crevel dont le suicide vient d'être découvert il évoque un artiste « dont les généreuses indignations étaient servies par un âpre talent satirique ». L'écrivain et poète surréaliste de la première heure mais exclu du mouvement en 1935 et membre critique du Parti communiste depuis 1922 s'est donné la mort à son domicile ne laissant qu'une note pour sa maîtresse la comtesse argentine Tota Cuevas de Vera : « Prière de m'incinérer. Dégoût. » Peut-être celui d'une France bourgeoise et parlementaire de la IIIe République qu'il méprisait l'une et l'autre telle qu'il la décrivait avant sa mort dans les colonnes de Comoedia : « Vice en pantoufle adultères rondouillards mesquinerie lésine sourire faussement bonhomme au fond positivisme insensible jusqu'à la minute catastrophique où alors la terreur pousse les esprits soi-disant libres à remettre Dieu à la mode à s'en tirer par une assurance sur la vie et sur la mort. Tous ces symptômes d'ailleurs accusent une maladie qui pour être celle de la Troisième République ne date point d'hier. » René Crevel consacre un article à Man Ray dès 1925 qu'il présente comme l'auteur d'une chasse miraculeuse et comme un sorcier un « chasseur du mystère » Crevel « Le Miroir aux objets » L'Art vivant n° 14 15 août 1925. Man Ray tire ce portait sept ans plus tard. Il sera utilisé bien plus tard pour la couverture de la biographie de Michel Carassou et également par Claude Courtot pour le frontispice de son René Crevel aux « Poètes d'aujourd'hui » chez Seghers 1969 une image dont Marie Laurencin témoigna de son extraordinaire justesse avec ses « cheveux jamais pareils et son visage changeant d'adolescent rieur et malheureux ». Jean-Claude Vrain dans son catalogue de Portraits d'écrivains datait ce portrait de 1932 : « Ce très beau portrait tranche avec la plupart des photographies de René Crevel que nous possédons. L'écrivain y fait moins dandy sa mise est moins élégante. Il apparaît ici sous un aspect beaucoup plus ‘terrien' en bras de chemise le col déboutonné. Son visage moins angélique que d'habitude mais toujours d'un aspect poupin exprime une détermination et une force que l'on retrouve dans certains de ses textes les plus virulents comme Le Clavecin de Diderot » n° 307 du catalogue. La version proposée non signée était également un tirage tardif des années 1970 par Pierre Gassman. Le Centre Pompidou conserve le négatif de la photo qui a servi à ce recadrage sous la cote AM 1995-281 524. Provenance : René Char [Paris, circa 1950]. 1 tirage sur carte, d'après-guerre, signé « Man Ray » à la mine de plombe en angle inférieur droit. unknown
