Gardner Philippe
Emile Galle
New York: Rizzoli 1979. Softcover. VG- Small sticker inside front cover minor wear to edges. Tan illustrated wraps with black lettering 167 pp. Numerous bw and color illustrations. "The extravagant elegance of the fin-de-siecle left its most durable legacy in the field of the applied arts and the name of Emile Galle ranks with those of Mucha Lalique de Feure and Guimard among the men who combined an artistic vision of the highest order with the exacting and centuries old standards of European craftsmanship. Of the two centres of Art Nouveau in France Paris and Nancy it was Galle's devotion to the artistic heritage of the craft guilds which created the Nancy school. Philippe Garner's perceptive and sympathetic analysis the first full scale study to appear in English not only places Galle within context of Art Nouveau but also examines his involvement with the Symbolist poets the literary significance which this imparted to his work and the manner in which he captured in sculptural dorm the whole spiriti of turn of the century Europe. Galle's mastery of richly transluscenet colors and elegant tracery of curving lines is nowhere more obvious than in his glasswork the vases bowls and lighting fixtures in exquisite shades of lilac paink and orange which established Galle and his workshops as the foremost glass producers of the period. These same qualitites of linear grace and tonal subtley penetrated all of Galle's work from the deeply tinted furniture carved in exotic woof to his decorative and exhuberant pieces in faience. Emile Galle's position as one of the most provacative and multi-faceted talents in Europe at the turn of the century is here confirmed by the richness and variety of his oeuvre in all media the distillation of an artistic vision which impresses primarily by its nuances and its delicacy." - blurb from back of book.

ARIES Philippe 1914 1984.
Western Attitudes Toward Death: From the Middle Ages to the Present.
Baltimore:: Johns Hopkins University Press 1974. 1974. 8vo. xi 3 111 1 pp. Figs. index. Beige gilt-stamped cloth dust jacket; jacket chipped. Very good. ISBN: 0801815665 First American edition. Aries was a French medieval historian and friend of Michel Foucault. He is best known for his book Centuries of Childhood 1962 which presents childhood as a social construction rather than an actual physiological state. The other focus of his academic career somewhat paradoxically was the evolution of western societies' concept of death. In Western Attitudes Towards Death he argues that as religiosity has waned societies have become increasingly reluctant to confront death directly. / "Proposing that there is a permanent relationship between one's idea of death and one's self Aries explains how and why death ceased being a familiar routine forgetting of a self and has become a wild feeling of personal failure." –jacket.

Title-page with woodcut vignette and 4 woodcut illustrations by Marc Chagall. 48 pp. Among Marc Chagall's earliest book illustrations preceded only by appearances in 1914 and 1918. With Andre Breton Soupault was one of the founders of the Surrealist movement: "Soupault's earliest verse collection 'Aquarium' 1917 was published with the help of Guillaume Apollinaire who introduced Soupault to André Breton. In 1919 Soupault Breton and Louis Aragon cofounded the review 'Littérature'. Originally drawn to the antirationalism of the Dada movement Soupault soon rejected its nihilism and he and Breton experimented with other revolutionary techniques. One result of their experimentation was the "automatic writing" of the jointly authored 'Les Champs magnétiques' 1920; 'The Magnetic Fields' known as the first major Surrealist work. Soupault soon abandoned automatic writing to produce carefully crafted verses such as those in 'Westwego' 1922 and 'Georgia' 1926. As the Surrealist movement became increasingly dogmatic and political Soupault grew dissatisfied with it and eventually broke with it and Breton" Encyclopedia Britannica online.

Their works were accomplished during the half-century of modernity: expansion of capitalism development of transport which made it possible to travel the world . In terms of the arts this period saw the birth of a European space open to traffic and exchanges. All three travelers they discover places and grounds which fifty years earlier they would not have been able to access. Monet went several times to London on the Mediterranean coast to Belle-ÃŽle and as far as Norway. Hodler stays in Munich Paris Italy Spain. Munch the most "nomadic" of the three travels very often between the Scandinavian countries Germany Italy and France. The thematic route of the exhibition reveals the affinities of some of their research while the three men come to painting without being prepared for it by their social origins. Relentlessly they try to "capture" the intangible elements snow the sun at its zenith the clarity of the Moon water mountain peaks . marking the art of the end of the 19th century and the beginning. of the twentieth centuries through their innovative approach." - translated from French website description.

Hambourg Maria Morris. ; Nadar Felix ; 1820 1910. ; Heilbrun Francoise. ; Neagu Philippe
Nadar
New York: Metropolitan Museum of Art : Distributed by H.N. Abrams 1995. Hardcover. VG. Pictorial glossy dj; ivory cloth covers. xii 272 pages : illustrations. Nadar whose real name was Felix Tournachon 1820-1910 was a conspicuous even astonishing presence in nineteenth-century France. Engaging and quick-witted he invented himself over and over as a bohemian writer a journalist a romantic utopian a caricaturist a portrait photographer a balloonist an entrepreneur a prophet of aeronautics. The name "Nadar" was on everyone's lips. Today it is Nadar's photography that is remembered. His sitters who were often his friends included the great men and women of his time: Dumas Rossini Baudelaire Sarah Bernhardt Daumier Berlioz George Sand Delacroix. Nadar's legendary name has been attached not only to his original photographs but to reprints copies and a great deal of studio work. For that reason this volume exactingly reproduces some one hundred photographs from the years 1854-60 the period of his earliest and finest photography allowing viewers to become familiar with the subtle light and balanced velvety tones that distinguish Nadar's original work. Accompanying the photographs are essays that shed new light on the many facets of Nadar. Contents as follows: A portrait of Nadar / Maria Morris Hambourg -- Nadar and the art of portrait photography / Françoise Heilbrun -- Nadar and the artistic life of his time / Philippe Néagu -- Sorting out Nadar / Ulrich Keller -- Beyond the portrait beyond the artist / Sylvie Aubenas -- When I was a photographer : the anatomy of a myth / André Rouillé -- The Nadar studio dispersed and recovered / André Jammes. Catalog of an exhibition held at the Musée d'Orsay Paris from June 7-Sept 11 1994; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art New York from April 14-July 9 1995./ Includes bibliographical references p-257-263 and index./ Also issued online.
