192047900Paris. 1920 - 1921. Single printed folded sheets as issued. 6 issues. 221 x 139 mm. Issue no. 4 with a printed illustration 'Machine de bon mots' after a drawing by Francis Picabia and the printed stamp in red on outer unprinted wrapper: 'PROVERBE / n'existe que pour / justifier les mots.' A rare complete and unsophisticated set of this Paris dada periodical.Edited by poet Paul Eluard the focus of 'Proverbe' is far more seriously linguistic although it retains the playfulness to be expected from dada than many other periodicals of the period. Although the typical elements of dada typography are present - the variable font different register differing colours the ruling and the use of different angles of printing to the plane of the page - here it is the word that reigns. In fact only one of the issues is in any sense illustrated: issue 4 contains a reproduction of a drawing by Picabia the 'Machine de bon mots' but even here Picabia's concern is at least as semantic as visual.The first article of the first issue makes the aim of 'Proverbe' clear: 'Syntaxe' by Jean Paulhan with its urge to reinvigorate language is followed by pieces by Phillipe Soupault Tristan Tzara an aperçu by the Marquis de Sade and an editorial page of aphorisms mottoes advertisements and instructions. Perhaps the most memorable of these latter is the reassuring announcement concerning Picabia's '391': '391 ne contient pas d'arsenic. On peut le prendre en toute sécurité et en secret sans rien changer à ses habitudes.'The second issue saw the arrival of additional contributors and the editorial board of Louis Aragon André Breton Paul Eluard Jean Paulhan Francis Picabia Maurice Raynal and Philippe Soupault was expanded to include Georges Ribemont-Dessaignes. Issue 4 - the only illustrated issue - was printed on the recto only of the sheet but with an excised circular hole Picabia again incorporated into the issue and titled 'Bracelet de la Vie'.The contributions for issue five were published anonymously while issue 6 printed after a delay of nearly a year was titled additionally 'L'Invention' and gives only the initials readily identifiable of each of the contributors. On the final page of issue 6 the contributors are listed as: 'la Canule de verre Rides propres la Nourrice des étoiles le Grand serpent de terre le Mandarin citron l'Homme à vapeur la Pissotière à musique et l'Homme à la tête de perle'.'Je m'appelle maintenant tu. Tzara fou vierge. / Tristan Tzara est un idiote vierge. Francis Picabia. / Et il n'y aura jamais de faux Dada. Paul Eluard.' Proverbe No. 3 1920.' . a delicious melange of quotations from Picabia Paulhan Aragon Dermée and others . '. Ex-Libris Cat. 2. unknown
192092144Paris: Proverbe 1920. Fine. Complete copy of this iconic Dada journal with its subscription leaflet Proverbe Paris 1er février 1920 - 1er juillet 1921 14 x 22.5 cm & 208 x 275 5 fascicules sur feuillets double et 1 feuillet recto-versos An exceptionally rare complete collection in six issues of this important Dada journal including the very rare sixth no. of July 1921 entitled ""Invention et proverbe"". Contributions by Paul Eluard André Breton Céline Arnauld Tristan Tzara Philippe Soupault Louis Aragon Jean Cocteau Francis Picabia Jean Paulhan Maurice Raynal Georges Ribemont-Dessaignes Jacques-Emile Blanche Théodore Fraenkel among others. One of the most significant Dada journals published at the height of the movement with its very rare subscription leaflet. Undoubtedly the finest example of poetic parody conceived by the Dadaists as a radical response to the conventionalized atrophy of lan-guage and morality. ""These journals DdO4H2 ; M'amenez-y ; Proverbe and Z represent the specific product of the 1920 Dadaist frenzy. The most interesting of them standing clearly apart from the rest was unquestionably Proverbe which claimed to 'exist only to justify words'"" Michel Sanouillet Dada à Paris ""Thus through the alchemy of Eluard's editorial choices Proverbe became a genuinely Dada journal: consistently innovative exploring the diverse possibilities of language 'justifying' words that is calling them into question inventing its own idiom and more distinctively still indicting conventional syntax through aphorisms. These aphorisms according to Michel Leiris's phrase rhyme falsely: commonplaces caught in everyday speech i.e. 'it means what it means' no. 2; nonsense phrases; sayings taken from Dadaist writings such as Tzara's 'My name is now you' no. 3; sentences of zero denotation such as 'With DADA every day rendez-vous anywhere' no. 4. In Dépaysement de l'aphorisme Marie-Paule Berranger compiled an exhaustive inventory of all the verbal operations proposed by the contributors to Proverbe ranging from the inversion of stereotypes to the portmanteau proverb the commonplace taken at face value the deflating riddle and the redefinition of grammatical rules: all ultimately underscoring the paradox of language. But to focus solely on this aspect is to overlook much else that the publication contains beyond sententious wordplay. Eluard while testing the effect of his own poems clearly took great pleasure in composing these explosive pages and wrote in another journal: 'Proverbe resembles the piers of a demolished bridge' Henri Béhar Dada Circuit total p. 302. A rare complete copy of this ephemeral and incandescent publication: ""of all the Dada journals the one that made the most coherent contribution to the problem of language"" Tristan Tzara.
