GF665 2009 2 hardcovers is slipcase very good condition <p><b>A perfect facsimile of Jazz a 20th century masterpiece<br><br> </b><i>This two-volume edition includes a perfect facsimile of Matisse's seminal cut-out work: </i>Jazz<i>. At last readers can experience Jazz</i><i> as if holding the 1947 original.</i><br><br> The reputation of <b>Henri Matisse 1869–1954</b> as the most important artist of the modern era is rivaled only by Picasso—who himself said ""All things considered there is only Matisse."" Towards the end of his monumental career as a painter sculptor and lithographer an elderly sickly Matisse was unable to stand and use a paintbrush. So at almost 80 years of age he developed a new technique: he drew shapes on colored paper cut them out and pasted them together. These <i>gouaches decoupées</i><b> </b>gouache cut-outs represented <b>a revolution in modern art</b> yet their simplicity was dismissed by many critics as the folly of a senile old man. Later critics realized that <b>Matisse had found a brilliant solution to the age-old conflict between line and color</b>—one that would profoundly influence generations of artists to come.<br><br> <b>Printed in exactly the same colors using paper and inks similar to</b> <b>the</b><b> 1947 edition</b> the facsimile volume allows readers to experience <b><i>Jazz</i></b> in its original unbound form. <b><br> Printed in 18 colors on a small offset press 4 pages at a time to obtain the highest fidelity to the original<br> Printed on Old Mill in 190 g/m² from Italian paper mill Fedrigoni. This paper is of archival quality and has a felt-like softness much like handmade paper<br> As with the original this reprint is unbound and folded in signatures of 4 pages. It is protected by a French folded jacket and a hard-backed cover<br><br> The second volume provides a thorough historical context to Matisse's cut-outs</b> tracing their genesis in his 1930 trip to Tahiti through to his final years in Nice. Also included are other pivotal works from his later career including his contributions to <i>Verve</i> magazine and his exquisite decoration of the Vence Chapel. <b>Includes rare and historic photographs</b> by Matisse taken in Tahiti as well as <b>photos of Matisse by Henri Cartier-Bresson </b><b>Brassaï</b> and the filmmaker <b>Murnau.</b> The text is supplemented by <b>quotations from Matisse Picasso E. Tériade </b>the publisher of <i>Jazz</i> and <i>Verve</i> the poets Louis Aragon Henri Michaux and Pierre Reverdy and Matisse's son-in-law Georges Duthuit.<br> </p> Taschen hardcover

193737981Paris Hermann & Cie 1937. vo. 2 volumes both in the orig. printed wrappers both volumes uncut and partly unopened. Some wear to corners and edges w. a bit of loss vol. II missing part of lower spine. W. ownership signature Carnap the author's name partly erased and library marking that of Carnap on front wrappers. 44 1; 67 2 pp. One plate and several text-illustrations to volume II. <br/><br/><em>First edition presentation-copy for Rudolf Carnap of this overlooked but in its time important work on the question of the telos or final aim of physics and biology. The first volume is inscribed "A Monsieur Rudolf Carnap/ Hommage de/ Georges Matisse" on front free end-paper and both volumes carry the signature of Carnap in pencil on front wrappers. Although now largely forgotten Georges Matisse 1874-1961 was a prominent thinker and a remarkable scholar who was considered important and influential in his own time. He contributed with several publications to the fields of science and philosophy and all of them are considered solid and interesting. His most famous works consist in the thee-volume cycle "La philosophie de la nature" 1938 "Le Rameau vivant du monde" 1947-49 and "L'Incoherence universelle" 1953-56 all published by the Presses Universitaires de France. The present work is thus published before what can be considered his actual breakthrough and represents us with thoughts very much in vogue at the time.As the title indicates the present work discusses the question of the motion of the appearances of nature towards their final aim. "L'explication des phénomènes naturels par l'idée de causes finales qui les dirigent est fréquemment adoptee encore." Vol. I Introduction.The first part of the work demonstrates that certain general principles do not apply to all appearances or that these principles contain something totally different than that which the non-physic could expect. "Malheureusement Presque tous ceux qui emploient le langage téléologique pour conter les événements croient que la finalité constitue une explication scientifiquement valuable c'est-à-dire qui precise les conditions necessaries et suffisantes de genèse du phenomena." Vol. I Introduction.The second part deals with the appearances of the living nature. Matisse tries to show that neither the way that the organisms are built nor the functions of the organs can be explained as striving towards an aim. This is explained among other things by the fact that many developments in nature lead not to the perseverance of the individual or the species but on the contrary to the death of it.The work evoked somewhat of an interest in the field of philosophy of science and was viewed as a valuable contribution to the answering of questions that occupy a position on the border of philosophy and science. In his own time Matisse was considered important and influential within this field. He attended the famous "Congrès International de Philosophie Scientifique" in Paris in 1935 which was organized primarily by Carnap.The present work was written shortly after this congress and published shortly before the first part of his main work. Carnap seems to have read the introduction in which there are a few pencil-underlinings and he has probably been more interested in the general thesis against teleology and preformation as a scientifically valuable explanation of the phenomena of nature than in the more thorough explanation of his ideas.Matisse graduated in biophysics in 1918 in Paris but early on he became interested in mathematics physics and epistemology the three fields of which are united in this interesting treatise. </em> unknown
