Hardback with DJ. This work springs from the high regard fashion photographer Irving Penn has for has for the Japanese designer Issey Miyake who has said that Penn's photographs allow him to see his own designs. Issey Miyake 1938 2022 was a Japanese fashion designer. He was known for his technology-driven clothing designs exhibitions and fragrances such as L'eau d'Issey which became his best-known product. In 1969 Miyake moved from Japan to New York City where he met Christo Robert Rauschenberg Joe Eula and Donna Jordan. He was enrolled in English classes at Columbia University and worked on Seventh Avenue for designer Geoffrey Beene. Returning to Tokyo in 1970 he founded the Miyake Design Studio a high-end producer of women's fashion. From a young age Miyake had respected artist Isamu Noguchi whose novelty and sense of fun in his designs inspired Miyake. He was also inspired by fashion designer Madeleine Vionnet's use of geometric calculations and "a single piece of beautiful cloth". In Paris he visited several museums and he mentioned that he was influenced by sculptors such as Constantin Brâncusi And Alberto Giacometti. In the late 1980s Miyake began to experiment with new methods of pleating that would allow both flexibility of movement for the wearer as well as ease of care and production. The garments are cut and sewn first then sandwiched between layers of paper and fed into a heat press where they are pleated. The fabric's 'memory' holds the pleats and when the garments are liberated from their paper cocoon they are ready-to wear. For his part Irving Penn 1917 2009 was an American photographer known for his fashion photography portraits and still lifes. Penn's career included work at Vogue magazine and independent advertising work for clients including Issey Miyake and Clinique. His work has been exhibited internationally and continues to inform the art of photography. During his early years at Vogue as the magazine's art director Penn developed a bold graphic sensibility that complemented his chic images and embodied modern taste. His use of monochromatic backdrops of black white or gray allowed him complete control of natural lighting conditions and enhanced the visual simplicity of his photographs. In an era when elaborate artificial lighting was the norm his work stood out from the rest and influenced subsequent fashion photography. Expanding his austere studio surroundings Penn constructed a set of upright angled backdrops to form a stark acute corner. Subjects photographed with this technique included John Hersey Martha Graham Marcel Duchamp Pablo Picasso Georgia O'Keeffe W. H. Auden and Igor Stravinsky. 'Irving Penn Regards the Work of Issey Miyake' displays the wordless harmony of the artistic relationship between Irving Penn one of the great photographers of the twentieth century and the designer Issey Miyake one of the few figures to have taken clothing design into the realm of art. For more than a decade and across different continents the work of one has provided a mirror for the work of the other. Miyake offers Penn the forms and textures that have been the substance of much of his long career. Penn's photographs allow Miyake to look again at his designs as if they were completely new. This is an invaluable representation of the intuitive partnership between two artists that Miyake describes as a "silent understanding." ; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 184 pages . Jonathan Cape hardcover

Quelques auréoles et rousseurs sur la couverture et sur la partie des marges dépassant du volume ; bon exemplaire cependant, et de grande rareté. // Note concernant les n° 11 et 14 de LETTRES FRANÇAISES : En 1981, dans son " Discours de réception à l'Académie française " (au fauteuil laissé vacant par Roger Caillois), Marguerite Yourcenar a évoqué sa participation aux LETTRES FRANÇAISES : " Vers 1943, quand nous étions [Roger Caillois et Marguerite Yourcenar] volontairement des exilés l'un et l'autre, lui, sous la Croix du Sud, moi dans une île qu'illumine assez souvent l'aurore boréale, il voulut bien accepter un long essai de moi pour la revue des LETTRES FRANÇAISES, qu'avec l'appui de cette admirable protectrice des lettres, Victoria Ocampo, il dirigeait à Buenos Aires. A cette époque où la voix de la France n'arrivait que rarement jusqu'à nous, ces minces cahiers nous apportaient une preuve rassurante de la vitalité de la culture française, venue, certes, d'un autre point du monde, mais n'en prouvant que mieux son don d'universalité. Peu importe ce qu'étaient ces quelques pages assez informes, qui plus tard m'ont servi de brouillons pour certaines parties d'autres livres. J'avoue même, en les relisant dans de vieux numéros des LETTRES FRANÇAISES, m'étonner qu'un esprit doué d'une si parfaite rigueur les eût acceptées. [] Quoi qu'il en soit, à une époque où nous n'étions guère rassurés sur la survie de la culture (le sommes-nous aujourd'hui ?) ni du reste sur notre propre avenir, un tel accueil était pour un jeune écrivain encore dépaysé aux Etats-Unis une grâce accordée et un service rendu. Cher Caillois, je saisis cette occasion de vous en remercier en public. "

2008Exhibition catalog is in excellent condition with one small mar at upper spine. Binding is solid and square, covers have sharp corners, exterior shows no blemishes, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Organized by the Museum of Modern Art in Paris with the cooperation of the foundation of Georges Rouault, the Archives of Henri Matisse with the coordination of the Brain trust, Inc. of Tokyo. Text is in French and Japanese. 198 pages with a great many full size prints from both artists. In the spring of 2006, the Rouault Foundation's rediscovery of Henri Matisse's letters to Georges Rouault, coming to respond to Rouault's letters that have remained classified in the Henri Matisse Archives, shed light on the "lively sympathy of art" which linked the two artists throughout their lives, from their beginnings in the studio of Gustave Moreau at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, at the end of the XIXth century, until their last meeting, in Cimiez, in February 1953. The correspondence found to date opened in the summer of 1906, when Matisse resided in Collioure, to resume in the 1930s; while Rouault enters into professional contact with Matisse's son, Pierre, who devotes three special exhibitions to Rouault in his New York gallery between 1933 and 1947; it intensified during the Second World War. Theatrical projects, personal health concerns, artistic considerations, exhibition projects, resurgence of memories of their youth intermingle in the letters of the 40s and 50s. Carried out in close collaboration with the Georges Rouault Foundation and the Henri Matisse Archives, the presentation of the correspondence between Rouault and Matisse testifies to this friendly and artistic network. While the exchange of letters was lacking, especially between 1907 and the 1930s, chronological research and archives made it possible to reconstruct the seemingly relaxed framework of their friendship, bringing to light many events which on the contrary attest to its constancy: numerous exhibitions, participation in the first "Jury of the Painters' Prize" in June 1923, at the Ballets russes, collaboration with T?riade for the review Verve. This edition, an original contribution to the history of art, highlights the highlights of their correspondence by articulating multiple meeting points, and sheds light on the parallel journey of two artists who have asserted their own personalities from a point of common departure: the "erotic symbolism" (Philippe Dagen) of Gustave Moreau, figure of their youth which holds a central place until the evening of their life.
