Ejemplar no. 2885/3000.<br /><br />Texto en contraportada: <i>"</i><i>Como poeta y profundo conocedor de las aventuras artísticas de su tiempo Octavio Paz ilumina la obra de Marcel Duchamp revolucionario no sólo en el arte como lo demuestra su anticipación a muchas de las actuales tendencias sino también en la relación entre el artista y la vida. Del Gran Vidrio a los ensamblajes Duchamp mantuvo una actitud distanciada y secreta una ocultación de la propia obra que sólo ahora recobra toda su significación: silencio que es un lenguaje falsa inactividad que es crítica e ironía y que poniendo en crisis la figura misma del artista del mito del arte desarregla las nociones adquiridas abre una riesgosa y deslumbrante zona a la inteligencia creadora propone un nuevo modo de ver. Es imposible entrar en los cambiantes espacios del arte que se está haciendo hoy sin atender a las claves que nos dan el silencio y la obra de Duchamp su acción saludablemente perturbadora."</i> Ediciones Era paperback

Leporello binding with printed boards and cream cloth spine title in black slipcase. The binding is faintly thumbed and slipcase has a closed tear to the base and some rubbing at corners but overall this delicate book is in wonderful condition. One of the 29 lettered and privately circulated copies as stated on the limitation page from a run of 529 500 copies numbered. <br /> EXTRAS: "Aviso al lector" sheet printed on yellow paper. A scarce example of one of the 29 privately circulated lettered copies. The entire run consisted of 529 copies 500 of these being the numbered ones available to purchase. <br /> <br /> Octavio Paz wrote this poem in New Delhi between July and September of 1966 while he was serving as Mexico's Ambassador to India. <br /> <br /> As outlined in the "Aviso al lector" separately printed and included in this copy of the work «Octavio Paz conceives the long poem as a different form and governed by its own logic not as an expansion or extension of the short poem.» He begins experimenting with "poetry of movement signs in rotation" culminating in Blanco. «Appearance disappearance and reappearance of certain themes presences words obsessions the shape of Blanco is that of the spiral. There are two main currents-word and eroticism-that come together separate and come together again. The text allows multiple readings: it is a cluster of meanings a poem that contains several poems. . The same poetic requirement governs the visual conception of the page and explains the particularities of this edition. Typesetting is one aspect of verbal composition. On the one hand it is a kind of punctuation not orthographic but rhythmic; on the other it is the space where the written sign is displayed analogous to the time of elocution.»<br /> <br /> Octavio Paz Lozano 1914 -1998 was a Mexican poet and diplomat. Politically Paz was a social democrat who became increasingly supportive of liberal ideas without ever renouncing his initial leftist and romantic views. Although he broke with the early Marxist/communist beliefs Paz continued to consider himself a man of the left the democratic "liberal" left not the dogmatic and illiberal one. He was also a promoter of incremental change not revolution. In 1968 he resigned from the diplomatic service in protest of the Mexican government's massacre of student demonstrators in Tlatelolco. While participating in the political and diplomatic life of his country Paz was also a prolific author and poet publishing scores of works during his lifetime many of which have been translated into other languages. For his body of work he was awarded the 1990 Nobel Prize for Literature as well as the 1977 Jerusalem Prize the 1981 Miguel de Cervantes Prize the 1982 Neustadt International Prize for Literature.

1967132640Mexico City: Joaquín Mortiz 1967. First and limited edition number 405 of 579 copies of one of Paz's major works experimental in both form and content which when unfolded "in a certain sense. produces text by transforming the space itself into a text" Sanchez. It was composed while Paz was serving in India as Mexican ambassador; his time there is important in relation to his entire concept of the piece: "The physical presentation of the poem reinforces the Oriental concept of fusion of fragments or opposites both philosophically and graphically in endless succession not impeded by punctuation as in the theory of reincarnation' Kushigian pp. 98-99. At the opening of the poem Paz includes a quote from the Buddhist Hevajra Tantra. "'Blanco' has been described as "an intensely erotic poem as the Tantric Buddhist epigraph together with one from Mallarmé suggests. In it the outside world is reduced to the figure of a poet in a room listening to music playing and the sounds of a woman close by him: the act of writing and the act of love-making become one and the same" Caistor. "'Blanco' is an intricately designed poem that embodies many postmodern traits with its typography emphasizing the poem's visual aspects. The poem begins with the words spread out in three columns across the page. The text then forms a column that proceeds down the page with the occasional staggering of lines. The single column then splits into a bold font on the left accompanied by an italicized font on the right. As the poem progresses this pattern repeats four times with the bold and italicized verses gradually drifting toward and ultimately pressing against one another" Waring p. 27. The 'aviso al lector' explains the conception of the book as a presentation of 'el movimiento de la realidad'. A second edition in this format was issued in 1972; of this first only two copies are cited by Library Hub among British and Irish and institutional libraries Cambridge Oxford; WorldCat adds around ninety copies worldwide a generous portion of the print run of 579 copies. In commerce "Blanco" is decidedly uncommon. Square octavo. Letterpress printed in red and black on a single sheet folded concertina-style unfolding to 5 metres. Original leporello binding white cloth spine lettered in black covers with yellow hollow square motif superimposed on a black background front and white background back perhaps representing the hollow square of the Tibetan Buddhist mandala. With the original slipcase. Small private stamp "VHL" to slipcase title and half-title. Peripheral toning to slipcase which has short splits to head spine of leporello lightly toned same to back cover light abrading to front cover. A very good copy with the original "aviso al lector" loosely inserted. Caistor Nick Octavio Paz Reaktion Books 2007; Kushigan Julia A.
