Pablo Picasso was a profound admirer of Char and of the work which collected all of Char's poems published after 1927 and submitted an etching for the second edition - printed in a very similar format to this edition - published again by José Corti's Editions Surréalistes in 1945. A third illustrated edition was also published illustrated by Joan Miró in 1976.

In the present copy the poems 'Sosie' and 'Détachement' feature corrections by Char in green ink. He has amended the last line of 'Sosie' to read: 'Je ne vais pas au bout de ta pauvreté' for 'tes misères' a change reflected in the subsequent editions. The first line of 'Détachement' 'La fleur du pissenlit a perdu son identité' is crossed through and Char has drawn an arrow to it from a note beneath: 'Ce vers ricanait qu'il meurs / comme tant ce fin ricane. / R. C.' 'Détachement' was renamed 'Dentelée' for subsequent editions but was altered considerably by Char and the first line crossed through here was removed entirely.'Des trois éditions illustrées du 'Marteau sans Maître' celle-ci la première est la plus rare . Dans une lettre à Char du 28.11.1933 Kandinsky accepte la demande de fournir une gravure pour son livre bien qu'il ne connaisse pas l'auteur.

Many came directly from the most preeminent artists of the time as well as from their families and estates. He also possessed a vast number of drawings from the famous collection of another avant-garde enthusiast Nikolai Khardzhiev. After leaving the USSR in 1989 and settling in California Viktor continued his work as a Soviet art dealer and critic actively publishing various articles and contributing to several major Russian avant-garde exhibitions across the U.S. such as the 1991Â Russia Under Fire in the 40sÂ on the West Coast and the 1992 Guggenheim exhibitionÂ The Great Utopia: The Russian and Soviet Avant-Garde.

Sélection.

1933190263Anvers: Éditions Sélection 1933. Inscribed to the founder of Britain's first abstract art journal during the Paris visit that inspired it First edition presentation copy inscribed by Kandinsky to Myfanwy Evans on the title page "Mlle. M. Evans Comme souvenir de sa visite à mon atelier Kandinsky Paris 8 IX 34" "as a souvenir of her visit to my studio". In the summer of 1934 Evans visited Paris where she met avant-garde artists including Kandinsky Giacometti Arp Mondrian and Brancusi. The meetings were decisive: on 26 September Evans wrote to Kandinsky "I'm going to start an English magazine on abstract art but abstract only not surrealism" Barnett p. 44. The first issue of Axis published in January 1935 drew heavily on Kandinsky's Concerning the Spiritual in Art a foundational text of abstraction. The issue also reproduced Kandinsky's "Drawing 1924"; the reproduction was made directly from this copy as shown by pencil annotations on page 43 in the hand of Evans's future husband John Piper directing the printer to retain Kandinsky's signature. Evans maintained her connection with Kandinsky - the second issue of Axis also included a Kandinsky illustration and Evans's article "Kandinsky's vision" and in 1937 Kandinsky contributed the essay "Empty Canvas etc" to her anthology The Painter's Object. Sélection was founded in 1920 and from 1928 its numbers became single-artist monographs. This Kandinsky number published in July 1933 was the last of the series. Edited by Kandinsky's close friend and early champion Will Grohmann it includes essays and tributes by Zervos Baumeister Seuphor Rivera de Ridder Cary and Galka Scheyer. It illustrates Kandinsky's prints from 1902 to 1932 and drawings from 1910 to 1932. Kandinsky assisted with the publication. Small quarto. Portrait and 15 full-page half-tones after Kandinsky 48 full-page line blocks vignettes and title page ornament. Original brown wrappers printed in dark brown. Wrappers a little worn with book block loosening light soiling and toning: a good copy. Vivian Endicott Barnett Kandinsky in Paris 1985. unknown

KANJINSUKI, Vuashiri (Wassily Kandinsky). Obara Kuniyoshi (Trans).Biblio.com

Kanjinsuki No Geijutsuron. Uber das Geistige in der Kunst Insbesondere in der Malerei.

192446222Tokyo.: Idea-Shoin. 1924 Tai Sho 13. Original publisher's scarlet cloth with gilt vignettes after Kandinsky to front and rear boards original card slipcase with illustration after Kandinsky to front cover and printed text in Japanese to spine and rear cover. 4to. 258 x 198 mm. Printed title in Japanese and Western characters on glossy paper monochrome photographic portrait of Kandinsky with reproduction of his signature as frontispiece Kandinsky's translated text in Japanese with occasional insertions in Western characters illustrated with 9 monochrome text vignettes 3 'Tabelle' of colour theory and 57 plates on a variety of paper stocks 9 in colour and 48 in monochrome several with multiple images on the same sheet including the 'Abbildungen' at rear final leaf with imprint verso; the illustration incorporates that for 'Uber das Geistige in der Kunst' as well as many from 'Klänge'. A very scarce edition of Kandinsky's Uber das Geistige in der Kunst published in Japan in 1924.Although Reinhard Piper feared that Kandinsky's treatise on abstraction would not sell well the book required three editions in the first year it was published. This Japanese edition published nearly 15 years after the original incorporates the text and woodcuts of the earlier editions as well as Kandinsky's later introductions to the first and second editions as well as illustration from 'Klänge'. The majority of the plates depict work by Kandinsky but works by Dürer Raphael Cézanne and others are also included.The Japanese translation is by Obara Kuniyoshi 1887 - 1977 the publisher translator and educational theorist and president of Tamagawa University which he founded. His Idea-Shoin publishing house later the Tamagawa University Press was established in 1923 and aimed to produce teaching material educational work for children Obara published the first encyclopedia for Japanese children as well as the complete works of the Swiss educator Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi. Obara's translation of the present work is not only an indication of the importance of Kandinsky's text and theories but also casts light on the emergence of Japan's own avant-garde and its international influences.'The book which he Kandinsky claimed had been gestating for nearly a decade elucidated his artistic theories and his valuing of expression and spirituality over naturalistic representation. It also introduced his new pictorial categories derived from the field of music - impressions improvisations and compositions - which further de-emphasized the importance of recognizable subject matter. On the cover and in ten woodcuts Kandinsky illustrated his ideas by reducing complex scenes of spiritual battle and redemption to simplified designs of lines and shapes. For Kandinsky abstraction was a weapon for transforming what he perceived to be a corrupt materialist society.' see MOMA catalogue.'One of the most important manifestos of modern art. Written in 1910 and first published in 1912 Kandinsky's book is anti-materialistic and anti-naturalistic calling for painting that goes beyond a recording of the visible world. The non-objective woodcuts are historically important as early graphic demonstrations of the artist's thesis.' The Artist and the Book.Obara's translation is scarce and we can trace only the copies at the Metropolitan Museum and the Phillips collection outside Japan for which OCLC list copies at the National Diet Library and Waseda University Library.see Roethel 82 - 92; see The Artist and the Book 137 for the first edition of 1912.
