THE LAST TRULY GREAT ILLUSTRATED BOOK OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY: A BRILLIANT EXPOSITION OF JOAN MIRO'S WORK THAT REQUIRED SEVEN YEARS TO PRODUCE, WITH TWENTY PENCIL-SIGNED ORIGINAL PRINTS BY NILS BURWITZ. Twenty texts about Miro by leading Spanish and Catalan intellectuals and artists, including Camilo Jose Cela, Rafael Alberti, and Robert Graves (who spent much of his life living in Mallorca). The texts are in Spanish or Catalan (except for Graves' poem, which is in English), and all appear here in first edition. Each text is accompanied by a AN ORIGINAL COLOR FULL-PAGE HORS-TEXTE MIXED-MEDIA PRINT BY NILS BURWITZ, JUSTIFIED AND SIGNED IN PENCIL BY THE ARTIST. These twenty highly complex prints are mostly etchings, often with aquatint and embossing. They brilliantly illuminate various aspects of Miro's work--and unmistakably demonstrate Burwitz' artistic and technical virtuosity. EDITION LIMITED TO 125 COPIES, ALL PRINTED ON EXTREMELY FINE HANDMADE PAPER AND SIGNED BY THE ARTIST IN THE COLOPHON. Large folio. Loose as issued in the original solander case, covered with beautiful dyed fabric made in Mallorca. Ceramic plaque with the title mounted to the front cover. Housed in a cloth slipcase. FINE AND BRIGHT, WITH NO DEFECTS. Laid in is a prospectus and a copy of the explanatory booklet--one of 1,000 copies, also signed by Burwitz--that contains reproductions of all of the prints, portraits (by Burwitz, of course) of all of the authors, and translations of all of the texts into English and German (and into Spanish for the Catalan texts, and Catalan for the Spanish). A monumental and stunning work.

Édition originale. Un des 6 premiers exemplaires sur vélin gris n° vi. . En mai 1968 à l'écart des événements qui secouent la France René Char fait une crise cardiaque : de cette « expérience » il tire les poèmes du Chien de coeur qu'il publie un an plus tard évoquant le soir qui faillit l'emporter dans le texte liminaire qui ouvre le recueil : « Dans la nuit du 3 au 4 mai 1968 la foudre que j'avais si souvent regardée avec envie dans le ciel éclata dans ma tête m'offrant sur un fond de ténèbres propres à moi le visage aérien de l'éclair emprunté à l'orage le plus matériel qui fut. Je crus que la mort venait mais une mort où comblé par une compréhension sans exemple j'aurais encore un pas à faire avant de m'endormir d'être rendu éparpillé à l'univers pour toujours. Le chien de coeur n'avait pas geint. » Tous les poèmes furent composés entre juin et août 1968 à l'exception d'« Outrages » composé par bribes entre 1944 et 1967 ; ils dénoncent les distorsions de la société moderne et l'écart grandissant entre l'homme et la nature. Pour l'illustrer il fait appel à Joan Miró qui lui compose un frontispice. Une centaine de lithographies originales sont imprimées toutes signées pour accompagner les exemplaires du tirage de tête : 95 5 sur vélin d'Arches et six exemplaires sur vélin gris. Le tirage comprend également des exemplaires hors commerce sur vergé chiffon rose et sur vélin vert mais qui ne possèdent pas la lithographie sauf le premier des rose dans laquelle elle a été ajoutée. 790 exemplaires sur offset Roberstsau seront également imprimés pour lesquels le frontispice de Miró est reproduit au trait.

The third is "Marcel Duchamp" from an edition of 200 copies printed in blue features a single print tipped onto the title-page verso of the "Moustache and Beard of L.H.O.O.Q." -- arguably the cornerstone of Dadaism -- in which Duchamp's original metal stencil was applied in graphite on paper by pochoir.

"The stencil was originally made for the addition of those details to the reproduction of L.H.O.O.Q. in The Box in a Valise" Bonk p. 241. The final one "Au 'depens des mots'" is one of an edition of 200 printed in gold with black accents on the title-page. Inscribed "a ma petite CecileEluard de tout coeur Georges Hugnet". Each of the butterfly books is a rare survival; together they form an outstanding group much like the artists themselves. A rare survival in immaculate condition.
