(FT) Suede wraps. 4to. [4], 171, [2], 23 pages. 28 cm. First edition. In Yiddish and English. Added title-page: Ten years Artef; published for the tenth anniversary of the Artef, March, 1937. Extensively illustrated publication for the tenth year anniversary of the radical Yiddish theatre company: Artef, the radical Yiddish dramatic troupe based in New York during the heyday of the Yiddish theater in America. Begun in the mid-1920s as a study group of amateur worker-actors (at one time there were nine separate studios with over 120 students) , in the 1930s the troupe went professional, putting on at least two and often three new plays per season. With such plays as Jacob Mostel's Strike, Shmuel Godiner's Jim Kooperkop, Avrum Vevioka's Diamonds, and Maxim Gorky's Egor Bulychev and Dostigaev and Others, Artef spread propaganda to the masses. Ideologically Artef was far left; its hope was a Communist society here in America. As a troupe, its role was agit-prop, to agitate and propagandize, to serve as the cultural representative of radical workers. In fact, most of its tickets were pre-sold through worker unions and, at least in its early years, Artef gave presentations at political events. Its first large-scale production was Mass Play and Ballet of the Russian Revolution, which appeared at the Lenin memorial celebration in Madison Square Garden on January 21, 1928. Artef's greatest artistic and commercial successes were connected with the talented productions of director Benno Schneider. Schneider, who had been active in the Zionist Habima troupe in Moscow, wed aesthetic excellence to revolutionary ideology with his interpretation of Aristocrats, an adaptation of Sholem Aleichem's Mentshn. Incidentally, Schneider earned such a positive reputation with Artef that he received offers to direct on Broadway, a promotion that cost the radical Yiddish theater dearly. The end of the Artef was gradual, and its causes were closely associated with the reduced role of Yiddish in American life. But there were bright lights before the darkness. During the days of the Popular Front, when the Communists formed associations with less radical leftist parties, the Artef attracted a larger audience, which led to an optimistic expansion that later was responsible for huge financial losses. The darkness occurred at the end of the thirties, when the number of Yiddish speakers began to diminish. The last performance of the Artef was on July 7, 1941. (Review by Dr. Brian Horowitz of Yiddish Proletarian Theatre: The Art and Politics of the Artef, 19251940 written by Edna Nahshon) . Many of the actors and directors in Artef went on to establish solid careers on Broadway, Hollywood, and for those blacklisted, overseas. Subjects: Arbeiter theatre verband, New York. Jewish theater.

Provenance: The Japanese Gallery London. Kunichika one of the final great masters of the ukiyo-e tradition devoted his career to capturing the vitality of the kabuki stage.

369267Japan Undated c.late 19th century. Unframed Print. Fine Condition. A bright and finely preserved original colour woodblock print by Toyohara Kunichika 1835-1900 measuring 24 x 37 cm. Provenance: The Japanese Gallery London. Kunichika ranks among the most compelling late masters of ukiyo-e renowned for his vivid portrayals of kabuki actors and the theatrical world that shaped his artistic life. Apprenticed at thirteen to Utagawa Kunisada he quickly absorbed the expressive vocabulary of the stage gesture costume and dramatic tension elements that became central to his celebrated yakusha-e actor portraits. His work flourished during the profound cultural shift from the Edo to the Meiji period a time when traditional woodblock printing faced increasing competition from new technologies. Kunichika remained a loyal defender of the ukiyo-e tradition producing prints distinguished by their bold compositions saturated palettes and emotional immediacy. His characteristic use of deep reds and purples combined with a keen sensitivity to theatrical presence allowed him to capture not only likeness but atmosphere. This print depicting the actor Kawarazaki in the role of a female spirit exemplifies Kunichika’s ability to convey both the supernatural and the performative with striking clarity. The heightened expression rich colour and dramatic poise are hallmarks of his mature style. As one of the final great practitioners of the ukiyo-e technique Kunichika’s work forms a vital bridge between two transformative eras in Japanese visual culture. Size: 24 x 37 cms.

Provenance: The Japanese Gallery London. Kunichika one of the final great exponents of the ukiyo-e tradition devoted much of his career to the world of kabuki.

369266Japan Undated c.late 19th century. Fine Condition. An engaging and well preserved original colour woodblock print attributed to Toyohara Kunichika 1835-1900 measuring 24 x 37 cm. Provenance: The Japanese Gallery London. Kunichika is widely regarded as one of the final great masters of ukiyo-e actor portraiture celebrated for his dynamic engagement with the kabuki stage. Apprenticed at thirteen to Utagawa Kunisada he developed a distinctive command of theatrical expression—gesture costume and the heightened drama of performance. His work particularly in the field of yakusha-e is marked by bold compositions saturated colour and a keen sensitivity to character. Although this print is catalogued as attributed to Kunichika” it displays many hallmarks associated with his mature style: strong outlines rich tonal contrasts and a vivid sense of movement. The subject a sword fighting scene reflects the theatrical intensity and choreographed dynamism that were central to kabuki performance and frequently explored in Kunichika's oeuvre.

369269Japan Undated c.late 19th century. Unframed Print. Fine Condition. A vivid and well-preserved original colour woodblock print by Toyohara Kunichika 1835-1900 measuring 24 x 37 cm. Provenance: The Japanese Gallery London. Kunichika stands among the last great masters of ukiyoe celebrated for his dynamic portrayals of kabuki actors and the theatrical world they inhabited. Trained from the age of thirteen under Utagawa Kunisada he quickly distinguished himself through his instinctive grasp of stage gesture costume and dramatic expression. His lifelong fascination with kabuki led him to specialise in yakusha-e-actor portraits that captured both the physical presence and emotional intensity of performance. Working during the turbulent transition from the Edo to the Meiji period Kunichika remained a steadfast advocate for traditional woodblock printing even as new artistic technologies emerged. His prints are admired for their bold compositions saturated colours particularly his signature purples and deep reds and their ability to convey the heightened atmosphere of the theatre. Beyond actors his oeuvre spans folklore subjects sumo portraits travel scenes and landscapes all rendered with a distinctive dramatic flair. This example depicting the celebrated actor Ichikawa Danjuro in the role of a male spirit is characteristic of Kunichika’s late work: striking theatrical and richly coloured with a palpable sense of presence. His legacy endures as one of the final guardians of the ukiyo-e tradition bridging two defining eras of Japanese cultural and political change. Size: 24 x 37 cms. Text is in Japanese.
