Bizarre mai 1955. no. 1. First edition.

rif. 51-7299Paris: Jean-Jacques Pauvert 1955. 4to. 19 x 26.8cm. 69.pp Original wraps. Founded by Eric Losfeld–who went on to publish Jean-Claude’s notorious Barbarella comics in the early 1960s–Bizarre lasted for just two issues before falling off the map in 1953. The magazine was soon revived however by Jean-Jacques Pauvert and Michel Laclos who kept its torrent of iconoclastic wit cultural criticism and artistic daredevilry running uproariously from 1955 right up to the eve of the Paris uprisings in the spring of 1968. No stranger to controversy Pauvert made a name for himself in the immediate postwar years publishing at times clandestine editions of Sade. His new bookshop on the Rue Bonaparte was quickly put under police surveillance when it opened in 1956 just a year after he restarted Bizarre and the besieged bookseller/ publisher found himself at the center of the “Affaire Sade” as the French government stepped in to ban the publication and sale of such works. Clashes with authority and public controversy also hounded other contributors to the journal including its ‘s star illustrator Siné. An anarchist with sharply anti-capitalist anti-colonialist and as many would later find anti-semitic views Siné felt pressured to quit his position as political cartoonist for L’Express due to his virulent opposition to the Algerian War which provoked public outcry from many readers and for a time in the early sixties he worked on Révolution africaine a journal financed by the Algerian resistance organization FLN. When the uprisings came in 1968 Siné again joined with Pauvert to found the magazine L’Enragé an important document of the rebellious spirit of the late sixties and early seventies recently acquired by Beinecke as part of the Philippe Zoummeroff Collection of May 1968 Paris / BIZARRE.
