197416567Cambridge MA: Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts Harvard University 1974. Boards. Near Fine. Toshi Katayama. #22 OF ONLY 150 COPIES within a larger limitation of 1000 copies SIGNED BY BOTH THE POET OCTAVIO PAZ AND THE ARTIST TOSHI KATAYAMA. 3 brightly-colored laminate geometric boards plus one board containing the signatures and limitation the copyright information and a brief background to this project are sandwiched between 2 blank pieces of cardboard. They all measure 11 1/4" x 11 1/4" and are housed inside of a printed white laminate box. The 3 geometric boards with their moveable parts are designed by Toshi Katayama and each includes cryptic Octavio Paz text. These boards are titled "Bread or Riddle" "Two in One" and "Portrait" and along with the "copyright" or "signed/limited" board are in bright Near Fine condition. Just a touch of very light soiling to the "copyright" board otherwise they're all as clean as could be. The fragile publisher's box is very presentable as well but does show some spotting and soiling to the front panel and edges. A bit of clear tape as well discreetly reinforces all of the corners. The background offered on the "copyright" board: "The interrelatedness of form and meaning in art has been a special concern of several major writers. Octavio Paz first explored the effect of visible shape on verse in BLANCO. Written in India in 1966 this poem is composed of words arrayed in columns which the author intended to be read independently and in combination. The idea derives he has told me partly from admiration for Mallarme but mainly from pondering on permutation integration continuity and other aspects of Tantric thought to which his mind had recently turned. In 1968 he wrote the TOPOEMS a sequence of six more explicitly concrete poems. Whereas the effect of BLANCO's design is conveyed typographically in these the words are manipulated topographically. Later the same year Paz decided to see how movement might affect a poem's purpose. The idea came as he played with a timetable made of two superimposed and rotating discs which divulged through slotted openings flights distances and time between the world's major cities. These experiments led to the design and publication of DISCOS VISUALES. During his stay at Harvard in 1971/72 Paz met Toshihiro Katayama the graphic artist who had joined the faculty of Visual and Environmental Studies at rhe Carpenter Center in 1966." This wonderful collaboration of poet and artist not only yielded an important example of early 70s graphic design but also an ambitious artist's book that resonates on a number of levels. <br/><br/> Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, Harvard University hardcover books

2000177102Madrid: Aldeasa 2000. Hardcover. VG light shelfwear to boards pages are clean and tight. Gold illustrated boards with red and blue lettering 369 pp profusely illustrated in color. The early decades of the 20th century saw unprecedented cooperation between the performing and visual arts. Painters and other visual artists working in a variety of avant-garde styles such as Cubism Surrealism Dadaism Constructivism and Futurism worked in the world of theater and dance throughout Europe creating masterpieces inspired by the explosion of creativity in the performing arts from the ballets of Diaghilev and Balanchine to the plays of the Russian Meierkhol'd and Futurists such as Marinetti and operas by the likes of Wagner and Offenbach. It was this burst of integration that led to the formulation of the idea of the "Total Art Creation" a term coined by Wagner and enriched both the theater and the visual arts. This handsome volume published on the occasion of a major exhibition at the Reina Sophia Museum in Madrid examines these avant-garde experiments in fusion between the arts with extensive color illustrations by virtually every major painter of the period: artists like Picasso Kandinsky Leger and others as well as in-depth essays on several of the performing art forms and the ways they involved visual artists in their production.
