First and only edition of the Georgian translation of Henri Barbusse's account of post-revolutionary Georgia published shortly after the French original appeared. "In his 1928 book Voici ce qu'on a fait de la Géorgie Barbusse praised post-sovietization political social and economic conditions in Georgia triggering a critical response from the Georgian émigré Dathico Charachidze who published in 1929 Barbusse les Soviets et la Géorgie with a sympathetic preface by Karl Kautsky" Wikipedia. One of 2000 copies printed. Chepyzhov 83 "Although Barbusse's work can be viewed as a great example of Socialist Realism. the cover of the book tells a different story. The Constructivist style of the design by O. Bur reveals that art was in a transitional period and this works sits between fading Constructivism and emerging Socialist Realism mixing elements of the two". As of November 2019 not in KVK or OCLC. We can only trace the copy at the Georgian National Parliamentary Library. unknown books
2017réf. 11365East Hampton NY 2017. Unique artist's book on three different St. Armand papers in tan / brown signed and dated by the artist Barry McCallion on the colophon page. Page size: 9.5 x 12 inches; 63pp. plus colophon and titlepage. Bound: hand sewn by Joelle Webber at Mermaid Bindery into tan St. Armand paper wrappers laid into grey felt portfolio by Barry McCallion with title stenciled in red outlined in silver gilt with two pieces of barbed wire separating under and fire and underlining "fire" with black mesh screening in three pieces on spine housed in tan cloth over boards clamshell box with title lettered in black on tan paper insets on spine and front panel. The book is a selection of texts from the novel by Henri Barbusse. The artist has selected sentences and paragraphs from the text copied them enlarged some printed on various papers and collaged to the pages of this book. They are surrounded by photographs from various conflicts with painting handwritten words in India ink printing ink metal foil and acrylic paint. The whole reflects on the brutality that is war - each and every war. Barry McCallion notes in his colophon "The hundred years between then publication of UNDER FIRE and now have seen a recurring and uncanny sameness of bloodied fields and trenches mountains and beaches mud and wire snow and sand.A book in protest his and this." He has used images from the First and Second World Wars Korea Viet Nam Iraq and Afghanistan. He adds in the colophon "I have attempted to heave up a century's weight of agony and loss in one book grouping images from different times to create a single immediate and simultaneous present." Henri Barbusse wrote UNDER FIRE in 1916 after serving in the French army for fifteen months in the trenches in World War I when wounds lifted him from the French front line. Considered the first of the modern anti-war novels and was awarded the Prix Goncourt. The author's harrowing details of trench warfare have lost none of their power to appall. Mr. McCallion's book succeeds in calling to mind the terrible tragedies and loss when people go to war. unknown books

réf. 004645Bruxelles: Les Editions Socialistes. First Edition. Folder. Paper pastedown on a heavy card stock. . Very Good. Signed by the artist on the front cover and dated 1928. The album may have been issued in 1925 but bears no printed date. 317 by 243 mm. One leaf with playful carnivalesque preface by Barbusse on the recto and a key on the verso with the title or subject of the following 12 pochoir plates rendered in six languages French Dutch German English Russian Italian and Spanish with some power deriving from the repetitive similarities for the words in the different languages. Each plate an allegorical depiction of an enemy of the working class: militarism property philanthropy social democracy "justice" colonialism fascism "police spy" parliamentarism "middle-spirit" religion and patriotism. The artwork a heady mix of Cubist Constructivist Futurist and Dada-ist styles has a sculptural quality which is no accident given that Deltor eventually gained renown for his monumental public works. Deltor was a refugee from Fascist Italy. He first settled in Paris in 1922 where he was expelled six years later for his political activism. From there he went to Brussels and eventually settled for good in the Netherlands where he won wider recognition. Also heightening the visual excitement are the muscularity of the coloration with metallic silvers and golds and even blues brash reds unusual yellows greens and other colors. And whatever one's politics or for that matter view of Modernism one is likely to succumb to the wit and zest of the imagery. The subtitle of the set "12 Personages in Search of One" would seem a play on the Pirandello play title "Six Characters in Search of an Author" which premiered in 1921. Foxing on the folder which has slight chipping to its spine. Minor rubbing and wear by edges. Along the spine or joint edge appears the shadow remnants of tape that might have once run along it as a makeshift repair. Marginal toning to the plates. Les Editions Socialistes books
