Mario Diacono came from Italy in 1968 to teach Italian literature at the University of California Berkeley and at Sarah Lawrence College. He returned to Italy to found his first art gallery in Bologna. There from 1978-1979 he showed young Arte Povera and Conceptual Italian artists like Jannis Kounellis and Vito Acconci. From 1980-1984 Diacono had a gallery in Rome showing mostly American artists including Julian Schnabel David Salle Joseph Kosuth Eric Fischl and Jean-Michel Basquiat in 1982. Mario Diacono opened his first gallery in Boston in 1985 at 84 Peterborough Street which had been the Starn Twins studio. In the spring of 1990 the gallery moved to 207 South Street a building that contained other art galleries as the area showed promise to be a new arts district. Diacono showed Alex Katz Eric Fischl Ross Bleckner David Salle Julian Schnabel Enzo Cucchi Sandro Chia Francesco Clemente Philip Taaffe Richmond Burton Roni Horn Ross Bleckner Rosemary Trockel Annette Lemieux and Baselitz among many others. However once the Gulf War broke out the art market collapsed and Diacono closed his South Street gallery in 1992. Diacono then moved to New York City for a short period of time and from early 1992 to the summer of 1993 he held exhibitions there together with Perry Rubenstein showing Ross Bleckner Philip Taaffe Richmond Burton and others. Upon his return to Boston he held exhibitions at 207 South Street again from 1994 to 2000. Artists he showed included David Salle Richmond Burton Peter Halley Rosemarie Trockel Annette Lemieux Barry X. Ball Matthew Ritchie Ross Bleckner and Günter Förg. Boston, 1985-2000. paperback books

1930réf. List328Boston 1930. Oblong quarto 49 pp. With appx. 1400 photos most measuring less than an inch square with roughly 175 in larger formats up to 3 ½ by 5 inches. Very Good. A wonderful labor of photographic love created by an unidentified young woman with ties to the Cabot family of Beacon Hill. The album composed largely of tiny contact prints glued in neat grids. Off-kilter compositions - a portion of a steeple against the sky the tail of a dog etc. - are mixed in with more traditional landscapes leading one to question whether the photographer had modernist aspirations or just took a lot of pictures. The photographer is unknown but our best guess is that it was someone who was a friend of Ellen Cabot of Beacon Hill perhaps while both were students or just after. Ellen Cabot the most frequent subject of the album is shown in a variety of settings often accompanied by her dog Prowler. Aerial photography the New England coastline camping life in Cambridge and equestrian competition are all on display. Other highlights include a dog named Benito Mussolini and artful shots of a monk’s torso. A portion of the photos perhaps five or ten percent are not present though the album is otherwise in excellent condition. Handwritten label on the front reads “Newport Races to Topsfield autumn 1930”. Overall the album is a testament to the energy and spontaneity of youth and the possibilities of the photographic form as well as an intimate look into Boston’s storied upper class. unknown books

1849réf. List1801Boston: Anti-Slavery Bazaar 1849. Small broadside measuring 7 ¾ x 4 ½ inches printed on green wove paper. Some creases and a small tear at margin near fine. Near Fine. The American Anti-Slavery Society hosted annual bazaars which served as fundraisers with money going to supporting the National Anti-Slavery Standard newspaper. Many women were involved with the event and sold abolitionist items. Offered here is one such piece of ephemera from the 1849 fair a poem written by an unknown author with the pen name “M.” The poem was featured in the poetry section of The Liberator January 26 1849 Vol. XIX. No. 4. with the description “The two following poetical effusions were written for the Anti-Slavery Bazaar In Faneuil Hall by friends of freedom in the old world.” It reads: Ye friends of liberty all hail! May your endeavours never fail In freedom’s sacred cause! May blessings e’er attend your course In striving to uproot all force And stern oppression’s laws! Yours is a noble task my friends! And God his gracious favor lends To speed ye on your way Until you reach the blessed goal When ev’ry dark benighted soul Shall hail bright freedom’s ray. Oh! may he speed the time when all Their fellow-men shall brethren call And the deep wrong remove When the dark chains of slavery Give place to sacred liberty And bonds of holy love! Oh! it were happiness to bind In such bright chains all human kind And set each captive free; For when oppressions all shall cease And this fair world be fill’d with peace Like Heav’n on earth ‘twill be! A very nice example of the anti-slavery movement during this period. Uncommon with one copy appearing at auction and none listed in OCLC. Anti-Slavery Bazaar unknown books
