Duchamp Marcel poster design with texts by Hans Arp Richard Huelsenbeck Jacques Henry Levesque & Tristan Tzara
Duchamp DADA Poster
Letterpress 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

Typographeum vivum. ŽÃvá tiskárna aneb lis myÅ¡lenky The Living Printing Shop or the Press of Thoughts.; Edice Bohemia
Prague: Äeskoslovenský spisovatel 1968. Quarto 29.5 à 18 cm. Original blind wrappers with typo-illustrated dust-wrappers; accordeon-bound leaves; 69 pp. With four full-page color lithographs "graphic labyrints" by ZdenÄk SklenÇÅ and numerous pages of typographic compositions by Hlavsa. A very good copy. Bilingual edition with text in Latin and Czech of John Amos Comenius' treatise "Typographeum vivum" "The Living Printing Press" a lengthy metaphorical comparison of his pedagogical approach to the means of producing printed books. The book was published to celebrate the five-hundredth anniversary of the appearance of the first printed book in Bohemia in 1468 The Trojan Chronicles. From the English-language resume: "the great seventeenth-century Czech humanist Jan Amos Komenský . had faith in the grandiose possibilities open to the printed word that can spread life-giving ideas. And finally it is to the second half of the twentieth century that the book owes its graphic design. This is the work of two contemporary Czech artists who have many times already shown themselves to be outstanding masters of book design and illustration -- the graphic designer and typographer OldÅich Hlavsa and the painter graphic artist and illustator ZdenÄk SklenáÅ. It is no coincidence that this bibliophile publication is designed and illustrated in a way that enables the artistic aspects of its typography to create new meanings." Parallel Latin and Czech text with Czech editorial notes and English Russian German and French summaries. Striking large-scale typographic design by Hlavsa incorporating fonts such as Bodoni Times Roman an eighteenth-century Prague specimen Verdi Frutiger's Univers and Menhart's Figural. One of 1000 copies printed. unknown books

Furniture and Interior Design: Hofstatter Theodore
SIGNIFICANT ARCHIVE OF FORTY-TWO ORIGINAL WATERCOLORS AND PENCIL DRAWINGS OF HOFSTATTER FURNITURE AND INTERIOR DESIGNS
New York 1940. Forty-two original works from approximately 9 x 7 1/4 inches to 14 1/2 x 11 1/2 inches. Most on paper and mounted to cardboard backing some executed on art board some matted. Minor dust-soiling to some several examples have pencil drawings of room layouts or floor plans on the verso Hofstatter stamps on verso of two a few examples detached from mount. Overall clean and in excellent condition retaining vibrant coloring. A stellar group of thirty-nine original watercolors and three original pencil drawings depicting early 20th-century furniture designs largely in the French Provincial style. The artwork was executed by New York furniture designer and interior decorator Theodore Hofstatter or artists working for his firm. The group includes wonderful depictions of mirrors beds window drapes chairs desks bureaus tables and stands. Additionally there are eleven works showing the interior design of various room settings. <br> <br> Theodore Hofstatter succeeded his father in their New York City business of furniture design and construction naming the firm Hofstatter's Sons when his brother Adolph joined him in the concern in the early 1870s. The Hofstatter family concentrated their efforts on building quality furniture at wholesale prices. In 1885 Theodore Hofstatter founded a branch of the business to focus on interior decorating opening a separate location on Broadway near Twelfth Street. Eventually the business would move to at least two different addresses on Fifth Avenue evidenced by Hofstatter labels affixed to the verso of several of the watercolors here a few of these labels are also marked "Special Design" by Hofstatter. According to THE NATIONAL CYCLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN BIOGRAPHY 1894 Theodore's design business "kept abreast ever since its opening with the current of fashionable taste in illustrating in the styles reproduced all those characteristics with which the names inseparably connected with the history of the three Louis are essentially a part. Berain Lebrun Watteau Andre Charles Boule have now a historical significance; Cailleri Gouthiere Reisener Fragonard Greuze Boucher Martin and the rest awaken a whole train of associations. It is through their influence and such as theirs that Theodore Hofstatter's designs possess the material to produce only those effects that can be truthfully termed good style." Hofstatter restricted his decorating contracts largely to commercial interests furnishing the City Club the Downtown Club the Arkwright Club and nine floors of the Hotel Savoy. He also cultivated a small group of private clients one of whom was Cornelius Dresselhuys Dutch consul to Great Britain. Two of Dresselhuys's rooms the Entrance Hall and Vestibule at 9 Kensington Palace Gardens in London are featured here in lovely full watercolors. <br> <br> A fascinating group of artwork featuring furniture and interiors from a prominent New York City furniture maker and interior designer. Such original illustrations of furniture and interior decoration are in our experience quite scarce. unknown books

Noel Roden; Pitts J. Martin Artist; Delrue Paul Design Binding
The Waternymph and the Boy
Monmouthshire: The Old Stile Press 1997. Limited Edition. Leather. Fine. Pitts J. Martin. No. IX of X specially bound copies folio size 27 pp. signed by J. Martin Pitts and Paul Delrue with prospectus. Paul Delrue b. 1944 bound his first book at the age of fifteen in 1959 and knew he had discovered his calling. He became an apprentice at the University College London from 1961-64 and worked there as a binder until 1971. He set up his own bindery in 1971 and in 1981 was elected a Fellow of the Society of Bookbinders having founded and served as chairman of the Chester and North Wales branch in 1979. Paul has earned numerous awards and honours including the Silver medal and three other awards in 1991 in The Bookbinding Competition. He was elected a Fellow of Designer Bookbinders in the same year; the following year he was awarded two Bronze medals in the prestigious Prix Paul Bonet. <br/><br/>Paul invented the lacunose style of binding which is masterfully shown in this work although he uses other methods as well. His work is highly prized and springs from within him; as he writes on his website "A book and its binding are inextricably linked - the one complements the other in a way which creates something more than just a book with an attractive cover. My design bindings draw on what a book says to me and how it inspires me emotionally." <br/><br/>The lovely Delrue binding perfectly complements the story by The Hon. Roden Noel 1834-1894. "In this poem he mixes elements of the story of Salmacis & Hermaphroditus from Ovid's Metamorphoses with memories of moods settings and atmospheres from his Irish childhood combining as John Addington Symonds wrote full sensuous feeling for the material world with an ever-present sense of the spirit informing it and bringing all its products into vital harmony." n.b. from the web site of The Old Stile Press<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Full leather in the Lacunose style with leathers used in colours of different blues grey greens brown and tan with swirls of lighter colour reminiscent of water pooling and white featherstrokes fore- and bottom edges uncut printed on brown paper throughout French folds double-spread title page with two-colour linocut by J. Martin Pitts in brown and white linocuts in brown and white by Pitts throughout; folio size 13" by 10" 27 unnumbered pages one of 225 copies this number 206 number IX of X specially bound copies signed by J.
