197813617West Islip NY: Universal Limited Art Editions 1978. Limited Edition. Boxed Loose Sheets. Fine. Limited Edition. Boxed Loose Sheets. This work is widely considered to be Rauschenberg's magnum opus of book illustration. <br /> "Long enamored of French literature and language publisher Tatyana Grosman attended a lecture by Alain Robbe-Grillet in April 1972. When the writer mentioned Robert Rauschenberg's work Mrs. Grosman already aware of stylistic similarities between the two felt that a collaboration was fated. Two days later it was underway. During the next four years Mrs. Grosman sent offset plates to Paris and proofed and translated Robbe-Grillet's text in West Islip; Rauschenberg added images one chapter at a time. The completed pages were sent back to Robbe-Grillet with plates for the next chapter. It soon became clear that Robbe-Grillet was not working in the spirit of sympathetic collaboration but providing a massive text that presented great problems in page design. Rauschenberg responded with images that are much more aloof than in previous books yet responsive to the elegance of the text." Esther Sparks Universal Limited Art Editions pp. 447-459<br /> Put another way:<br /> "Alain Robbe-Grillet the French author and filmmaker and Robert Rauschenberg have collaborated on an "image-text." The collaboration was difficult in part because of the procedure Rauschenberg blocked out where the text would be Robbe-Grillet wrote it in longhand on plates and Rauschenberg set the image down on stones and in part because of one-upsmanship the images all taken from French magazines referred to the text but had a visual logic that often intruded upon it and Robbe-Grillet would complain. Page by page this went on mostly by mail for six years. The tension of image and text and of the two artists is evident and the result is extraordinary." Foster Hal.

Some of the letters were multiple pages hand typed but often hand written some unsigned or just initialed usually with the location White was residing and the date written. Included with the letters are the limited edition work by Alain White on Gamage Frederick Gamage: An Artist in Chess Problems and Mike Prcic's book Frederick Gamage.

Robert Moore and Holladay were good friends and these were passed to him by Holladay's wife Rita.<br /><br />Serious buyers may inquire about more information regarding this collection.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />The letters have folds for postage some occasional stains and occasional edge wear else a very good collection.

195383521Paris Editions de Minuit 1953 1 vol. Relié in-8, demi-maroquin fauve à coins, dos à quatre nerfs, tête dorée, couvertures et dos conservés, étui bordé (D. Mitterrand), 257 pp.Premier roman d'un ingénieur agronome qui témoigne d'une étonnante maîtrise des procédés narratifs, cette enquête policière ballade le lecteur dans une sorte de labyrinthe textuel dont l'élégance formelle évoque déjà l'atmosphère de Marienbad. Un coup d'essai qui sera couronné par le prix Fénéon et loué par Roland Barthes, l'auteur et son éditeur devenant bientôt les représentants du "Nouveau Roman". Et pourtant lorsque Jérôme Lindon décide de publier Les Gommes, sa maison est au bord de la faillite. Afin de financer l'impression du volume, il doit se résoudre à en vendre les droits au Club français du livre qui l'édite en avant-première pour ses abonnées (avec l'achevé d'imprimer du 25 février 1953). On notera au passage que cela lui permet d'économiser les frais de composition, puisqu'il reprend la maquette et la typographie très particulières de la version club, se contentant juste de changer l'achevé d'imprimer (daté deux jours plus tard, le 27 février 1953). C'est ainsi que cette première édition publique ne peut être considérée stricto sensu comme l'originale !Mais du moins s'agit-il ici de l'un des 50 exemplaires numérotés sur vélin supérieur Téka, seul tirage en grand papier, et plus précisément de l'exemplaire personnel de François Mitterrand, dans une fine reliure signée de son épouse (dos très légèrement décoloré). On y joint une photographie en tirage d'époque (8 x 12 cm) de la fameuse série des écrivains du Nouveau Roman prise par Mario Dondero devant le siège des Éditions de Minuit où apparaissent côte à côte Nathalie Sarraute, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Michel Butor et Claude Simon.Bibliographie des Editions de Minuit, n° 163.
