1258San Francisco: Arion Press. 1990. Limited/Numbered Signed Edition. Non-Book. Fine. The clamshell portfolio has faint small waterspots to the front. The front board has a very slight concave dish.; A prominent player in the New York School of poetry Biotherm is Frank O'Hara's 1926-1966 jagged free verse "last long poem" written before his death. Begun in August 1961 said it started only as a small birthday poem to fellow poet Bill Berkson but he simply wrote until he decided to stop. The poem expanded to expound on other friends love the jaggedness of life in New York art food and myriad topics finally concluding in January 1962. Artist Jim Dine was an acquaintance of O'Hara a frequent collaborator with Arion Press and suggested publishing Biotherm to Andrew Hoyem press founder. Dine painted 42 monochrome illustrations as loose and unbounded as O'Hara's poem. Designing and setting Biotherm were typographic challenges as much of the poem is structureless with text 'exploded' into groups and lines. Jim Dine painted over the text sheet proofs to incorporate his art with the text on the page. This 32nd book from Arion Press consists of unbound 22" H. x 15" W. sheets laid loose in a 22 5/8" H. x 15 5/8" W. clamshell portfolio of thin red cloth over boards. Has all 42 required sheets of poetry and illustrations plus a half-title sheet. Copy 102 of a limited edition of 150 standard copies numbered and signed by Jim Dine. Although the standard edition is comprised of 42 sheets in monochrome one sheet hand colored by the artist and protected by a tissue guard. In Arion Press catalogs the full description does not mention this hand colored sheet but the concise line item in 1990s catalogs contains "42 lithographs by Jim Dine one hand-colored." The "hand-colored" mention disappears from later catalogs. All sheets are English T. H. Saunders mouldmade watermarked Waterford paper images lithographed by Phelps-Schaefer then text overprinted letterpress in Spectrum types by Arion Press. A recessed pocket in the clamshell portfolio houses the accompanying volume Companion To Biotherm for Bill Berkson : The Last Long Poem of the Late Frank O'Hara 1926-1966. 'Companion' contains Bill Berkson's essay Air and Such explaining Biotherm and O'Hara's writing. Also included is Berksons quite useful Glossary of Notes on Incidental References Quotations and Allusions in Order of Appearance in the Poem. Andrew Hoyem contributed a Publisher's Note detailing the motivations for publishing Biotherm incorporating Dine's illustrations and detail about the production of the edition. This large 8vo book is 11" x 7 1/2" saddle stiched into stiff wraps umpaginated and 24 pp. Arion Press' meeting the typographic and artistic challenges produced what may be the best exposition of a Frank O'Hara poem. The lithographed printed sheets and accompanying book are clean and in Fine condition in a clamshell portfolio that's about Near Fine.; Lithograph; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; Signed by Artist .

Format in-8°(24x20).Imitant les auteurs antiques, Ronsard (1524-1585) emploie d'abord les formes de l'ode et de l'hymne, considérées comme des formes majeures, mais il utilisera de plus en plus le sonnet, transplanté en France par Clément Marot en 1536.Aristide Maillol(1861-1944) fut l'un des sculpteurs les plus célèbres de son temps. Son oeuvre, silencieuse, fondée sur des formes pleines, élaborées à partir de l'étude du nu féminin, représente une véritable révolution artistique.
Edizione originale. Collezione quasi completa di tutto il pubblicato dal 1931 al 1940 (mancano i soli numeri di novembre e dicembre del 1940). Annate 1931 e 1932 con evidenti segni d’usura, per il resto annate in ottimo stato. Fascicoli sciolti conservati in astucci e cofanetti protettivi. Rivista letteraria d’ispirazione dichiaratamente cattolica fondata a Firenze nel 1929 e attiva fino al 1940. Inizialmente pubblicata, a partire dal maggio 1929, come supplemento “fuori commercio, senza promesse di continuazione” al Catalogo Generale della Libreria Editrice Fiorentina, dall’agosto dello stesso anno diverrà ufficialmente un periodico mensile associato allo stesso editore di area cattolica e diretto da Enrico Lucatello. Ma la vera svolta per «Il Frontespizio» si avrà nel 1931 quando, sotto la direzione di Piero Bargellini e con il lavoro determinante di Carlo Bo, la rivista – ormai edita da Vallecchi dal 1930 –, non cambierà soltanto veste grafica assumendo un formato più piccolo (27 x 19,5 cm contro i 39,5 x 27, 5 delle prime due annate) ma soprattutto diverrà sempre di più un luogo di dibattito vivacissimo tra diverse tendenze culturali e letterarie attraversate dal comune sentire religioso – benché anch’esso non privo di profonde differenze – dei membri della redazione e dei contributori. E proprio tale diversità sarà, nel tempo, causa di profondi dissidi tra il fronte antitradizionalista e fortemente aperto alle influenze europee capeggiato da Carlo Bo e quello, più conservatore sia da un punto di vista teologico sia da un punto di vista politico, rappresentato in particolare dal direttore Bargellini e da Giovanni Papini. Nel 1938 la frattura si farà definitiva, con Bo e altri collaboratori (tra cui Mario Luzi e Leone Traverso) pronti ad abbandonare «Il Frontespizio» e la rivista affidata, dal gennaio 1939, a un Comitato direttivo formato da Bargellini, Papini e Ardengo Soffici.
Formato cm 17,5x11 Pagine 2, 278, 2 Rilegatura ottocentesca un po' logora in mezza pelle con titoli in oro al dorso. All'interno alcune macchie e bruniture. L'ultima pagina presenta un restauro con rinforzo al margine bianco interno che non interessa il testo. Stato di conservazione più che buono. Rarissima edizione clandestina contenente tutte le poesie oscene in dialetto veneziano di Pietro Buratti, stampata senza il consenso dell'autore con falsi dati tipografici (l'opera venne pubblicata in Italia, a Verona o a Firenze, da anonimo editore). Buratti pretese il ritiro del testo del quale venne immediatamente proibita la stampa e solo pochissime copie si salvarono dalla distruzione. Assolutamente introvabile.
