1873réf. 249039Paris: Henri Charpentier Editeur 1873. Hardcover. viii 86p. twenty fullpage litho'd plates complete run in good shape intact also as to text. Hardbound folio in 19.2x13 inch red cloth boards gilt shows signs of a long-ago restoration to spine: relatively new red cloth smooth shows beneath the original red cloth textured along both joints and the head head rim is entirely a restoration with a bit more showing at tail rim. Boards are very edgeworn and somewhat grimy from handling and age. Cormer-tips show a lot of card. Hinges and endsheets original yellow stock are surprisingly good the textblock is a little loose at some gutters but is fundamentally intact. Laid down on the back of the frontispiece is a very old seller's note in French 5x4 inches about 50 words of description. One plate is loose with slight edgewear to margins. The textpaper stock is acidic toned and feels fragile though looks okay. Plates are vivid; nine or so show burning buildings and the colors are red and orange on black. Ten plates are b&w on pale tint-blocks; and one of the Exposition Universelle 1867 is a vast aerial panorama with some green and other tints. All litho'd colors and hand-work are applied expertly nothing garish nothing out of register. A fair-to-good copy of the book in toto without major flaws with all plates without exception good.

2013réf. 11567Newark VT: Janus Press 2013. Original Wrappers. Fine binding. 6-1/2" x 7." Limited edition one of 120 copies. Accordion fold with 8 panels 4 of them are fold-down pages. Each of the four page-spreads include letterpress text in various typefaces and colors which fold-down expanding the canvas of words sayings and accusations including a catalog of U.S. Senators and Representatives of the 111th Congress who became lobbyists-a list that fills the fold-down page in a small font; these opposite a lithograph by Van Vliet each lithograph is titled by the top word on the opposite page: Propagandist Lobbyist Banker Joe Public. Bound in gold paper repeated printed with the word "Greed" and all housed in gold slipcase. A fine copy. In a contemporary newspaper article in the Burlington Free Press Candace Page relates an interview with Van Vliet: "She picks up dummy of GREED a slim volume that will sit inside a glittery cover of gold paper. It opens like an accordion to display four Van Vliet black-and-white lithographs of distorted faces: A banker a lobbyist a newscaster she says 'and this one on the end the sap John Q. Public us.'" Van Vliet continues in the Page interview: "The word 'greed' will be printed multiple times on the cover in heavy unevenly inked type as though it were printed contemptuously by some greedy person with no respect for the written word. The paper is not handmade - that would be too good for the book. Instead it is 'slick nasty machine-made paper' she says. The edges of the gold cover will be sharp 'because greed is not a comfortable subject.'" There is a wonderful irony that the lithographs employed in Greed were originally drawn for an edition of Kafka decades before that just weren't quite right for the project. Here they are perfect! This is a striking book a political book one might say an angry and defiant book. Van Vliet's politics being informed by the McCarthy era during which she was a student she admits to having distrusted the powerful ever since. This edition sold out very quickly and is now rare in commerce. A book that was is and will always be relevant. Janus Press unknown

L'importance accorde la lumiÂre le sens de la construction et de l'unit de l'espace n'ont cess de proccuper l'artiste tout au long de sa carriÂre. in Bailly-Herzberg citant la prsente contribution de l'artiste. En 1913 Villon cre ses chefs dÕÃuvre cubistes sept grandes pointes sÂches o les formes se cassent en plans pyramidaux obscurcis. La mÂme anne il expose au clÂbre Armory Show de New York qui contribue introduire l'art moderne aux tats-Unis. Ses Ãuvres connaissent une grande popularit et se vendent sans peine. Sa notorit grandit tellement que dÂs les annes 1930 il est mieux connu aux tats-Unis quÕen Europe. La galerie Louis Carr organise une exposition de son Ãuvre Paris en 1944 la suite de quoi il reÂoit des rcompenses dans un certain nombre dÕexpositions internationales. En 1950 il reÂoit le prix Carnegie et en 1954 il est nomm commandeur de la Lgion d'honneur. L'anne suivante il reÂoit la commande des vitraux de la cathdrale Metz La France. En 1956 le grand prix de la Biennale de Venise lui est dcern lÕexposition. Les plus grandes ralisations de Villon en gravure sont sa cration dÕune langue purement graphique pour le cubisme une ralisation dont aucun autre graveur y compris ses camarades cubistes Picasso ou Braque ne pourrait se vanter. Un caractÂre Didot a spcialement t fondu pour cette dition par la Fonderie Peignot.
