"Le roi David. in its original version as a 27-movement incidental score for Morax's drame biblique was composed in two months between February and April 1921.

With a narration provided by Morax to link the items this 'psaume symphonique' was widely performed: in Paris for instance it was mounted on consecutive nights for three months.

19681002859Basel: Basilius Presse 1968. Inscribed first edition of Swiss artist Warja Lavater's dynamic panorama charting the development of painting in the West from the prehistoric cave art of Pech Merle to Jackson Pollock. Originally a designer of corporate logos and trademarks Lavater had a genius for the symbol producing inventive artist's books constructed of minimalist graphic codes and keys. The visual narrative of Sketch.Book is a historical one focused on the disruptive figure of the painter the "Disobedient" who is represented by two eyes stacked on top of each other: "With his exterior eye he sees with his interior eye he thinks." As the centuries and millennia rush by populated by the flowing black dots who represent the Disobedient's contemporaries we see glimpses of the painter's radical power of sight: Sumerian glyphs the golden ratio medieval illuminations Renaissance perspective modern abstraction captured in flashes and fragments. "This story is history because the visions of the painter become reality." Text in French English and German. Lavater has warmly inscribed this copy: "den Ungehorsamen.Curt und Erna Burgauer / herzlich / Warja Honegger-Lavater / April 1968." Based in Zurich the Burgauers were prominent art collectors; their foundation Stiftung Erna und Curt Burgauer remains an important source of support for emerging Swiss artists. A fine inscribed copy of a representational tour-de-force with an excellent art world association. Single volume measuring 8 x 9 inches: 88 double leaves. Original glossy color pictorial boards text block printed in black and orange. Inscribed by Warja Lavater in the year of publication. Slight bowing to boards. Basilius Presse unknown books

79892Zürich gta 2007. Gr.8° 184 S. zahlr. oft farb. Abb. Brosch. m. OU u. Bauchbinde OU min. gebrauchsspurig Buch tadellos. EA. Von Gottfried Honegger auf Titelblatt signiert. - Gottfried Honegger 1917-2016 Schweizer Grafiker Maler und Plastiker war ein Vertreter der konstruktiv-konkreten Kunst. Seit Mitte der 60er Jahre schuf er Skulpturen und Werke für den öffentlichen Raum. Dazu zählt beispielsweise die Installation Culur aus dem Jahr 1997. Sie besteht aus neun Metallsäulen in den Regenbogenfarben auf der Hochwasser-Schutzmauer bei Orden/Maloja eine zehnte Säule steht beim Bildungs- und Ferienzentrum Salecina. Honegger sagte über dieses Werk: «Die Arbeit hier in Maloja ist für mich so etwas wie eine Symbiose zwischen dem Schönen dem Liebevollen an sich und dem Bemühen unseren Augen etwas zu bieten was zum Denken anregt was uns zur Gemeinschaft verpflichtet. Der Dialog zwischen einer gewaltigen Natur einer nützlichen Technik und dem Geistigen der Kunst scheint mir hier eine ideale Verbindung eingegangen zu sein.» Honegger verstand sich als Citoyen der immer wieder zu kultur- u. gesellschaftspolitische Fragen pointiert Stellung nahm. 010 Zürich, gta, 2007 unknown
