FRONTESPIECE - VITRAUX POUR JERUSALEM MONTECARLO , 1962 - Litografia originale a colori impressa su carta vellina. Tavola fuori testo tratto dal volume "Vitraux pour Jerusalem" dedicato all'opera vetraia eseguita a Gerusalemme da Chagall. Famose in tutto il mondo, queste magnifiche vetrate policrome, della misura di metri 4 per 2,8 circa, sono state realizzate dal grande artista ebreo di origine bielorussa Marc Chagall in due anni di lavoro, tra il 1960 e il 1961, ed installate nel 1962 nella sinagoga del centro medico universitario Hadassah di Gerusalemme. Ogni vetrata, dominata da un colore diverso, è un microcosmo del caratteristico e fantastico mondo di Chagall, dove, tra realtà e immaginazione, egli rappresenta il suo profondo senso di identificazione con la storia e la cultura del popolo ebraico e, ispirato dalle sacre scritture, ritrae, tra simboli e fantasiose figure di fiori e animali, i dodici figli di Giacobbe e le dodici tribù di Israele. L'inizio della produzione litografica di Chagall risale al periodo di Berlino (1922-1923) ma fu nel 1946, negli Stati Uniti, che Chagall accettò di illustrare "Le mille e una notte": le tredici tavole del volume segnarono i suoi primi passi nella litografia a colori. Di ritorno a Parigi nel 1950, l'artista si recò dallo stampatore Fernand Mourlot, al quale si deve in gran parte il rilancio della litografia nel dopoguerra. Dal 1950 al 1952 Chagall frequentò assiduamente l'atelier di Mourlot dove imparò tutti i segreti del mestiere. Le prove di quel periodo furono stampate in pochi esemplari o distrutte, poiché lo scopo dell'artista non era quello di realizzare opere finite ma di impadronirsi della tecnica. Tra il 1922 e il 1985 Marc Chagall realizzò 1500 litografie. Molte litografie di Chagall furono realizzate con venti / venticinque colori e testimoniano l'enorme lavoro dell'artista: nessuno prima di lui raggiunse una perfezione tale da associare all'ineguagliabile ispirazione la completa padronanza della tecnica. Chagall fece della litografia non un mezzo per moltiplicare le sue opere, ma uno strumento necessario a una creazione che non poteva essere espressa in alcun altro modo. L'artista non realizzò quasi mai bozzetti preliminari per le sue litografie e da ciò derivano l'incanto e la spontaneità creatrice dei suoi lavori. I quattro volumi "Chagall litographe", da cui è tratto il foglio in esame, furono realizzati da Fernand Mourlot e Charles Sorlier (André Sauret editore) tra il 1960 e il 1974. Ogni volume cataloga le litografie realizzate da Chagall in un determinato periodo temporale ed è arricchito da diverse litografie originali inserite nei volumi come tavole fuori testo. Esemplare in ottimo stato di conservazione, margini editoriali. 0 [Bookseller: Libreria Antiquaria Il Cartiglio]

Fuck You : A Magazine Of The Arts, Number 4 Fuck You Press, New York 1962 - 4to, 26 pale green mimeographed leaves, unpaginated, secured by staples running the length of left edge. A fine copy. First edition. Issue Number 4 of this key publication of the Mimeograph Revolution. Printed in August 1962. In the 'fifties and 'sixties, one-man underground publishing enterprises such as the Fuck You Press rarely got past Issue One -- indeed, many failed even to get that far. Fuck You, A Magazine For The Arts ran for thirteen issues between 1962 and 1965, featured contributors comprising most of the principal cast of that period's counterculture scene, and is now acknowledged as one of the main freeways connecting the end of the Beats to the beginning of the Yippies. In Sanders' own words, 'Fuck You was part of what they called the Mimeograph Revolution, and my vision was to reach out to the 'best minds' of my generation with a message of Gandhian pacifism, great sharing, social change, the expansion of personal freedom (including the legalisation of marijuana), and the then-stirring messages of sexual liberation.' Contributors to this, the Mad Men issue, include Michael McClure making his debut appearance, Nelson Barr, John Weiners ('faggot & cocaine snifter'), John Harriman ('Dean of the Lower East Side Guild of Motherfuckers & Poets'), and Sanders himself. Sanders' attitude to his female contributors had yet to aspire to the revolutionary: among them were Carol Berge ('Sweet poetess whom the entire Editorial Board, you may know, would just love to fuck') and Mary Mayo ('another poetess on the We'd-love-to-fuck list'). Tuli Kupferberg makes his second appearance. He and Sanders were co-founders of the The Fugs, the underground freak electro-folk protest combo whose output, which included songs such as Homemade Shit, Coco Cola Douche and I Shit My Pants, resulted in an impressive number of arrests for obscenity. Around 500 copies of each issue were produced, firstly on the nearby Catholic Worker's Speed-O-Print and later on an A.B. Dick stencil duplicator. They were then distributed free of charge wherever Sanders found himself. The survival rate of any issue of the magazine is low; copies of early issues rarely surface, and they are rarer still in fine condition. [Bookseller: Neil Pearson Rare Books]

One Flew Over the Cuckoo?s Nest New York: Viking Press, 1962. First edition. Octavo, original cloth. Fine in a very good to near fine dust jacket with some light fading to the spine panel. Signed by Ken Kesey on the front free endpaper. Published in February 1962, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest was a great critical and commercial success. Over the subsequent decades the book's reputation and readership swelled as millions recognized Kesey's psychiatric ward as a not-so-fantastic metaphor for a modern world in which bureaucracy and technology combine to diminish humanity, individuality and diversity. Adapted to the stage in 1963, with Kirk Douglas in the lead, and was the basis for the highly successful 1975 film starring Jack Nicholson. [Bookseller: Raptis Rare Books, ABAA/ ILAB]

Portraitpostkarte mit eigenh. U. o. O., 24. VI. 1962. - 140 : 90 mm. Cliburn im Profil am Piano sitzend. RCA-Karte. - 1958 gewann der 23-jährige Texaner in der Zeit des Kalten Krieges den ersten Internationalen Tschaikowski-Wettbewerb in Moskau und wurde über Nacht weltberühmt. Fotos von seinem Triumphzug im offenen Wagen durch New York erschienen in allen Zeitungen. Fortan gastierte er in Konzertsälen in der ganzen Welt, widmete sich kurz auch dem Dirigieren und zog sich 1978 vom Konzertleben zurück.Anlässlich eines Dinners im Weißen Haus zu Ehren von Michail Gorbatschow spielte Van Cliburn im Dezember 1987 erstmals wieder öffentlich. Danach konzertierte er sporadisch. Es folgten ein Auftritt im Mann Music Center in Philadelphia, gefeierte Konzerte in Moskau und Sankt Petersburg sowie die Eröffnung des Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas. The New York Times notierte damals: "A Celebrity Returns, Undimmed." („Eine Berühmtheit kehrt zurück, ungetrübt."). Weiter hieß es: "It is reassuring to know after all these silent years that he is not deficient in the mysterious impulses that keep gifted artists active after the fires of youth burn low." („Es ist beruhigend zu wissen, dass ihm nach all den stummen Jahren jene mysteriösen Impulse nicht fehlen, die talentierte Künstler nach den Feuern der Jugend weitermachen lassen."). Später hat sich Cliburn vom Musikbetrieb ganz zurückgezogen.Seine berühmteste Einspielung war das erste Klavierkonzert von Tschaikowski. Die Aufnahme verkaufte sich 1961 mehr als eine Million Mal, was bis dahin mit noch keinem anderen Werk aus dem Bereich der klassischen Musik gelungen war. [Bookseller: Kotte Autographs GmbH]

Typed letter signed ("Bertrand Russell") with an autograph correction. Penrhyndeudraeth, 4. XII. 1962. - 4to. ½ p. To his friend and colleague, the physical chemist Professor Mansel Morris Davies (1913-95) in Aberystwyth: "[.] I am sorry that it is not likely I shall be able to accept your invitation, because I am, at the moment, so overwhelmed with commitments in the work against nuclear war that I have taken on, and in projects such that I will [corrected to: shall] be obliged to reject many invitations I should wish to accept. I shall keep your invitation in mind, and should it be possible for me to accept it I shall inform you [.]" - An eminent historian and philosopher of science, Davies taught at Aberystwyth from 1947 to 1977. His obituary described him as "a passionate crusader for social and political justice, a lifelong militant pacifist, a Pugwash participant, a committed humanist with strong leanings towards Buddhism, a prolific author and letter writer, a discriminating collector, a riveting anecdotalist, a man of omnivorous literary, musical and scientific tastes". - Traces of folds and of scotch tape along edges of upper left corner. On Russell's stationery with printed Plas Penrhyn letterhead (watermarked "Papyrus Regia"). [Bookseller: Antiquariat INLIBRIS Gilhofer Nfg. GmbH]

Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1962. Octavo, original cloth. Signed by Ludwig Von Mises on the front free endpaper. In near fine condition. Second edition. Books signed by Von Mises are uncommon. Socialism is a masterwork is much more than a refutation of the economics of socialism. It is also a critique of the implicit religious doctrines behind Western socialist thinking, a cultural critique of socialist teaching on sex and marriage, an examination of the implications of radical human inequality, an attack on war, socialism, and refutation of collectivist methodology. Von Mises sets out to refute socialism, and instead yanked out the collectivist mentality from its very roots. This work led dozens of well-known intellectuals, including a young F.A. Hayek, into libertarian political orientation. [Bookseller: Raptis Rare Books, ABAA/ ILAB]
