1947rif. 91779Paris: Editions Cahier d'art 1947. Fine. Dora Maar Signs Her Own Work Editions Cahier d'art Paris 1947 18.50 x 24.50 cm broché First edition which supposedly had an issue of 500 numbered copies. Gallimard donated the paper required for the production of this book but only 258 copies could be printed rather than the 500 announced in the justification from a note by Paul Éluard. A slight crease to the covers slight marginal sunning primarily affecting the rear cover. Illustrated with 11 photographs of Nusch Éluard by Man Ray and Dora Maar. Le temps déborde is a collection of eleven poems published in 1947 a few months after the sudden and unexpected death of Paul Éluards wife Nusch. A poignant ode to their seventeen years of life together the work is illustrated with striking portraits of Nusch. This exceptional copy is signed by Dora Maar beneath or directly on each of her five photographs. We are aware of only one other copy signed by the photographer and none signed by Man Ray. A rare and beautiful copy. In 1965 paying tribute to his friend Aragon recalled his discovery of this masterpiece: He signed it with an invented name Didier Desroches because he had killed Paul Éluard. I let him talk. What he had shown me of Didier was of a confounding beauty. This slender book which was to appear as the work of an unknown to say merely that in my eyes it surpasses everything Éluard ever signed with his own name is to say too little. I thought so then and I think so today. The attribution of each photograph in the collection to either Man Ray or Dora Maar has long been a source of confusion. Strangely the question seems to attract little scholarly attention: as Mary Ann Caws notes Dora Maars portraits of the Surrealists muse were originally attributed to Man Ray since they were so clearly superb in their construction and realization These photographing women: The scandal of genius Angels of anarchy: women artists and surrealism 2009. This misattribution was also a consequence of the systematic erasure of Dora Maars photographic work which she abandoned at Picassos request. The two series by Dora Maar and Man Ray are further entwined by their shared style and by both artists fascination with Nusch. Audacious framing and subtle interplay of shadow and light reflect the two Surrealist photographers formal innovation. Beyond aesthetic alchemy the three of them were very close at the time of these photographs 1935-1938. For several years they all took part with their partners Ady Fidelin and Paul Eluard in late-summer gatherings in the rustic village of Mougins overlooking Cannes at the invitation of Picasso where they indulged in role play identity and couple exchanges Alicia Ortiz Dujovne Dora Maar. Some of the collections illustrations are well known: Man Rays Nusch with mirror his diptych with her eyes closed and open and the celebrated portrait by Dora Maar illustrating the poem LExtase with her carefully lit face floating in darkness supported only with her fingers an elusive expression in her eyes. In one unforgettable version of the same image Les années vous guettent The years lie in wait. Maar superimposes a silvery spiders web over Nuschs features Louise Baring Dora Maar: Paris in the time of Man Ray Jean Cocteau and Picasso. The resonance of the photograph is all the more powerful since Nusch died early of a heart attack just on the day she was to lunch with Dora Maar for whom it was an irreparable loss. Mary Ann Caws For other photographs attribution had remained uncertain notably the portrait of Nusch bare-breasted and draped in foliage illustrating En vertu de lamour: the absence of a signature supports the attribution to Man Ray. A sublime poetic and artistic tribute featuring the finest portraits of Nusch central figure in Man Ray and Éluards shared imagery and graceful model for Dora Maars most accomplished portraits at last restored to their right Editions Cahier d'art unknown

Illustrated with 15 original photographic prints of the mannequins photographed by Man Ray at the 1938 International Exhibition of Surrealism. The mannequins had been transformed by Man Ray himself Salvador Dalí Oscar Dominguez Marcel Duchamp Max Ernst Espinoza Maurice Henry Marcel Jean Léo Malet André Masson Sonia Mossé Joan Miró Wolfgang Paalen Kurt Seligmann and Yves Tanguy. They were presented within a Surrealist staging by Marcel Duchamp and lighting designed by Man Ray himself. During the 1930s the European Surrealists had a fetishistic interest in simulated woman-female mannequins that they transformed into playful sculptural works of art. In 1938 Man Ray photographed a series of their work at the Exposition Internationale du Surréalisme presented in the unsettling half-light of the Galerie des Beaux-Arts on the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Visitors walking down a corridor on the Rue Surréaliste saw a series of dressmakers mannequins inhabitants of a dreamlike Paris scantily clad or adorned with a jumble of incongruous objects and flanked by street signs bearing highly symbolic names: some real such as the Rue des Vieilles Lanternes where Gérard de Nerval took his own life or the Rue Vivienne where Lautréamont once lived alongside invented ones such as the Rue aux Lèvres the Rue de Tous-les-Diables and the Rue de la Transfusion-de-Sang. The installations of this first international Parisian Surrealist exhibition organised by André Breton and Éluard marked a decisive moment in the history of the movement. For the first time the event dispensed with a straightforward retrospective of individual artists in favour of a series of phantasmagorical stagings live performances and ephemeral artworks prefiguring the modern concepts of installation and happening. Nearly 3000 visitors are said to have thronged to this 1938 Paris exhibition by the light of electric torches: One has the feeling of leaning over certain exhumed walls and of being the first to decipher their signs. Jean Fraysse Le Figaro littéraire 29 January 1938. From Hausmanns sculpture and de Chiricos paintings to the works of Hans Bellmer the mannequin had long occupied a central place in the Dada and Surrealist artistic vocabulary and was cited in Bretons 1924 Manifeste. These woman-objects staged in the spirit of the Musée Grévin offered infinite possibilities for the transformation of the body and the exploration of the unconscious. Some have remained enduringly celebrated such as Le Bâillon vert à bouche de pensée André Massons mannequin enclosed in a birdcage or Duchamps considered the only three-dimensional version of his alter ego Rrose Sélavy taking the form of a man cross-dressed as a woman in the style of Claude Cahun. The mannequin of lesbian artist Sonia Mossé friend of Artaud and photographed by Man Ray with Nusch is her only known artwork and the sole mannequin in the installation created by a woman artist.
