51000Letterpress poster 38" x 25" designed by Duchamp printed in black and orange on white ground acting as both notice for and as a catalogue of works shown at the landmark DADA exhibition at the Sidney Janis Gallery in New York April 15 to May 9 1953 with the texts and list of exhibited works creating a complex typographically radical and beautifully informative tableau. New York Sidney Janis Gallery 1953. The international group exhibition was assembled catalogued and installed by Duchamp and included some 212 works by both Duchamp and a roster of artists associated with the DADA movement working both individually and collaboratively. According to Arturo Schwarz in the Duchamp catalogue raisonne "The catalog was distributed at the exhibition as a ball of crushed tissue paper 'a Dada gesture to cancel the 'seriousness' of exhibition catalogs'. Sidney Janis in answer to a request for further information wrote 'The Dada poster by Marcel Duchamp for our DADA show of 1953 was very carefully planned over a period of weeks and when it was finally accepted as perfect then Duchamp crushed one into a wastepaper ball to be discarded into the wastepaper basket. 'This is the way you should mail them' and we did just that. We also had these 'wads of wastepaper' on exhibit in a wastepaper basket and when the visitors arrived they rescued these from the basket opened them and flattened them as best they could and read the catalog notations. Many clients complained that they did not receive the DADA catalog and when we checked we discovered that the various maids and butlers receiving these 'wads of paper' threw them away without noticing them to be a catalog.'" Arturo Schwarz "The Complete Works of Marcel Duchamp; Third revised and expanded edition; New York Delano Greenidge 1997; entry #543 page 801. Because so many of the posters were crushed and discarded only a small number of uncrushed examples have survived thus making the present object quite rare.<br/><br/>Our copy is one of an unknown but presumably very small number of uncrushed examples though it was folded at one point. There is some fading to the orange ink to various degrees and some very minor soiling along a couple of folds otherwise a very good copy of a rare and important work documenting an influential exhibition both Johns and Rauschenberg were reportedly big fans of the show that has only gained importance over the ensuing years. unknown books
18171002752London: Rudolph Ackermann 1817. Delightful example of the "line and dot" caricature craze of the Regency period. Although the art of the stick figure dates back to prehistoric times English caricaturist George Moutard Woodward is generally credited with inspiring the modern "pinmen" genre with his "Multum in Parvo or Lilliputian Sketches" early in the nineteenth century. Soon publishers across London were turning out prints of comically expressive pinmen hunting riding dueling flirting and acting Shakespeare. In February 1817 Ackermann's Repository of Arts published a satirical poem "Dottator et Lineator Loquitur" from the perspective of an exultant caricaturist: "I know that I can do much more / Than artists ever did before; / With but a DOT and eke a LINE / In ev'ry shape and act I'll shine." The poem was illustrated with a series of pinmen performing scenes from a ball: "Asking to Dance" "Cross Hands" "Hornpipe" and so on. This engraving printed on heavy paper and trimmed within the plate mark features the same dancers depicted in the pages of Ackermann's. A very good caricature print. Engraved caricature print measuring 3.75 x 8.25 inches imprint trimmed. Occasional stray spot. [Rudolph Ackermann] unknown books
