1914Best.-Nr. 185376London: Constable and Company Limited 1914. First edition in English of Kandinsky's seminal theoretical publication. In this volume the artist explores theosophy outlines his theories of the artist as a "prophet" p. 15 and argues for expression and spirituality in the place of naturalistic representation. Extracts from this translation were published in Wyndham Lewis's Blast magazine later in 1914 quickly establishing Kandinsky's reputation in Britain. The work was published in German in 1911 as Über das Geistige in der Kunst. This copy has the bookplate of George H. Green likely the cartoonist and renowned xylophone player 1893 - 1970 who played on behalf of Steamboat Willie in the Disney cartoon and was an early adopter of the vibraphone which became a popular jazz instrument in the 1930s. This is a lovely provenance given Kandinsky's claim that the power of art is to cause "vibrations of the soul" p. 104. The first edition was issued in grey boards as here and also in quarter cloth with marbled boards Small quarto. With 9 plates after paintings 4 by Kandinsky 3 diagrammatic plates in red and black woodcut chapter headpieces by Kandinsky.

1933Best.-Nr. 190263Anvers: Éditions Sélection 1933. Inscribed to the founder of Britain's first abstract art journal during the Paris visit that inspired it First edition presentation copy inscribed by Kandinsky to Myfanwy Evans on the title page "Mlle. M. Evans Comme souvenir de sa visite à mon atelier Kandinsky Paris 8 IX 34" "as a souvenir of her visit to my studio". In the summer of 1934 Evans visited Paris where she met avant-garde artists including Kandinsky Giacometti Arp Mondrian and Brancusi. The meetings were decisive: on 26 September Evans wrote to Kandinsky "I'm going to start an English magazine on abstract art but abstract only not surrealism" Barnett p. 44. The first issue of Axis published in January 1935 drew heavily on Kandinsky's Concerning the Spiritual in Art a foundational text of abstraction. The issue also reproduced Kandinsky's "Drawing 1924"; the reproduction was made directly from this copy as shown by pencil annotations on page 43 in the hand of Evans's future husband John Piper directing the printer to retain Kandinsky's signature. Evans maintained her connection with Kandinsky - the second issue of Axis also included a Kandinsky illustration and Evans's article "Kandinsky's vision" and in 1937 Kandinsky contributed the essay "Empty Canvas etc" to her anthology The Painter's Object. Sélection was founded in 1920 and from 1928 its numbers became single-artist monographs. This Kandinsky number published in July 1933 was the last of the series. Edited by Kandinsky's close friend and early champion Will Grohmann it includes essays and tributes by Zervos Baumeister Seuphor Rivera de Ridder Cary and Galka Scheyer. It illustrates Kandinsky's prints from 1902 to 1932 and drawings from 1910 to 1932. Kandinsky assisted with the publication. Small quarto. Portrait and 15 full-page halftones after Kandinsky 48 full-page line blocks vignettes and title page ornament. Original brown wrappers printed in dark brown. Wrappers a little worn with book block loosening light soiling and toning: a good copy. Vivian Endicott Barnett Kandinsky in Paris 1985. unknown
