1912rif. 51619Berlin: A. R. Meyer 1912. First edition. Softcover. Very good- condition. Small Octavo. 15 1pp. Original wraps with woodcut by Carrà and black lettering on cover. Authorized translation by Else Hadwiger with introduction by Rudolf Kurtz and a title portrait by the Futurist "Carrà." Like all vivacious dogmatists Marinetti is not ironic and the hymn is his natural form of expression. He produces a heroic stance which in its obstinate unswayable monumentality invokes Schiller's shadow. He is continuously mired in that boisterous music of the spheres; a bow finger of the eternal ocean glorious sunsets the valiant death. An enthusiast observing from the furthest edge of his time vom äußersten Kap seiner Zeit schauend; advanced to the beauty of iron constructions and by no means recoils from the hymn to the automobile.' Translated from Robert Kurz. Contains Marinetti's poems "An das Rennauto" Addressing the Race Car "Der Abend und die Stadt" The Evening and the City "Die Fanfare der Wellen" The Fanfare of Waves "Gegen die Syllogismen" Against Syllogism and "Hymnus an den Tod" Hymn to Death.

Edition of 300 numbered copies plus 26 lettered copies hors de commerce signed by the translator and illustrator. The course to publication of this book took many turns. It was first suggested by our literary agent Fred Hill who put Hoyem in touch with his friend Brian Bedford a distinguished actor who specializes in Molière comedies. Photographs of a current production of "Tartuffe" proved impossible to obtain as illustrations. While waiting for another idea for the art Hoyem got in touch with the poet Richard Wilbur who had made an excellent translation of the play in rhymed verse and obtained permission to use it. Then William Hamilton the "New Yorker" cartoonist came to mind. Hoyem had met Hamilton in 1978 and admired his liquid line and quick capturing of character and expression in his send-ups of WASPs. But could he do period costumes Hamilton made seven charming drawings with the main characters in period dress and the servants in modern dress. To celebrate the publication the Arion staff presented a staged reading from the play directed by veteran actress and director Joy Carlin. Bruce Bolt an eminent seismologist at the University of California Berkeley and an amateur actor took a matronly role wearing a skirt with an elastic waistband borrowed from his wife. This was the fifth volume in our drama series. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

Published on the occasion of the exhibition "29 Palms CA" from January 15 - February 14 2004 at the Gallery Kämpf in Basel. Design and lithography by ArtnetworX GmbH Hannover. A collection of photographs taken in the "dazzling California sunshine or in not exactly comfortable rooms" depicting Radha and Max not a man seemingly exhausted lost empty or insecure; the emptiness of their gaze reminds us of the loneliness of people in the paintings of Degas so Stefan Gronert in his text. He likens the Schneider motifs to B-Movies showing people who don't want to succumb to the Hollywood dream. Memories of Cindy Sherman's "Untitled Film Stills" flair up he writes though Schneider's photos are soft a picture language with pale artificially garish color scales tying into the stereotypes of Hollywood films. A Polaroid story turned into magnified C-prints giving us the impression of a story without a plot. Minor wear along edges of binding. Galerie Kämpf hardcover
