‎"Vos essais aussi bien que vos articles de Combat ont eu pour l'étudiant provincial que j'étais avant la guerre une importance considérable."" • FRENCH ACADEMY Admiring signed autograph letter addressed to Thierry Maulnier regarding his candidacy to the Académie française‎

‎S.n. Imprimerie universelle 1985. Fine. S.n. Imprimerie universelle 28 Mars 1985 21 x 29.50 cm 4 pages Autograph letter dated and signed by Michel Mohrt four pages addressed to Thierry Maulnier. 69 lines written in blue ink notably discussing his candidacy for the Académie française to succeed Marcel Brion's vacant seat. Folds from original mailing. A paperclip holds the two sheets of the letter together. After a first unsuccessful attempt in 1983 Michel Mohrt tried again in 1985 to become an Immortal: ""Je vous y rappelais qu'il y a deux ans lors d'une première candidature vous aviez bien voulu me recevoir à Versailles. Je n'ai pas osé une visite cette fois-ci sachant que vous me connaissiez."" Michel Mohrt regarded Thierry Maulnier as one of his intellectual mentors: ""Non seulement ces écrits politiques mais un ouvrage comme 'l'Introduction à la poésie française' ont été pour moi des révélations. A côté du maître intéressant vous étiez pour beaucoup de jeunes hommes de ma génération un maître dont les idées nouvelles 'au delà du nationalisme' représentaient l'avenir."" Although aware that it might cost him the election to the Académie Michel Mohrt showed some reluctance to engage in lobbying among the members of the Institut: ""Quelle que soit l'issue du vote académique qui à mon déplaisir a pris l'allure d'un affrontement avec un confrère du journal que je juge absurde je tenais à vous dire l'admiration que j'ai pour votre oeuvre.""

‎s. l. 1950. Fine. s. l. s. d. circa 1950 13.50 x 21 cm une feuille recto-verso Autographed letter signed by a half page in which Michel Mohrt announces his unavailability for health reasons to go to the management of a newspaper to modify an article he gave and in which he repressed François Mauriac . Michel Mohrt deplores his immobility due to his state of health: ""A slight flu probably caught at the session of poetry Saturday: I will not take me over! Forcing me to keep the room which requires it to ask his correspondent ""to modify a sentence of my article"". Article in which he attacks François Mauriac and the ""Figaro"" of which he was the editorialist from 1946 to 1953 while evoking in filigree the outrages of Victor Hugo polemicist and politician : ""Guernsey is a place more inspired than the fort of the"" Figaro ""But here there is hope. Regretting this acid and peremptory tone Michel Mohrt would like to temper his words and his vision of things : ""It is this last sentence that I would like to change.I do indeed seem to wish François Mauriac the same mishaps - imprisonment proscription exile - that he wished so much for the others - I have more charity than that - anyway this sentence is a little ""sharia"" as they say I would like to transform it like this: ""But here everything is possible .

Stamp of the photographer Michel Ragon on the back of the photograph as well as some handwritten annotations in felt-tip pen in ballpoint pen and in pencil. “À partir du milieu des années 1950 Martin Barré inaugure la voie d'une abstraction singulière ni informelle ni géométrique. Sa peinture est vite remarquée comme l'une des plus ambitieuses du moment en cherchant davantage à révéler l'espace qu'à produire des formes. Dès 1958 le Guggenheim Museum le fait entrer dans sa collection.” “From the mid-1950s Martin Barré inaugurated the path of a singular abstraction neither informal nor geometric. His painting is quickly noticed as one of the most ambitious of the time seeking more to reveal space than to produce shapes. From 1958 the Guggenheim Museum included him in its collection.” Centre Pompidou Martin Barré Retrospective - 14 Oct. 2020 - 5 April 2021 Rare photographic portrait of the artist at the start of his career. unknown‎
