Full Leather. Condition: Fine - As New. Limited Numbered First Deluxe Edition. A very scarce magnificent book in fine, like new condition in a fine custom clamshell case with the scarce shipping carton, SIGNED by five of the world's greatest artists: Marc Chagall (1887-1985), Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986), Joan Miro (1893-1983), Ivan Albright (1897-1983) and W. de Kooning (1904-1997) on the occasion of the 100th birthday of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1979. The signatures are original and are each on a separate page. In addition, the great Marc Chagall signed and dated his signature, "Pour Art Inst. Chicago, Marc Chagall, 1979." First printing deluxe edition (so stated), copy # 60 of 100 total copies issued as one of four major events celebrating the Art Institute's 100th birthday, according to David C. Hilliard, Life Trustee of the Art Institute of Chicago who headed the project. According to Mr. Hilliard, the deluxe books were sold, in good part, to buy an Indian sculpture in honor of Board Chairman James Alsdorf and his wife Marilyn. Per Hilliard: "There is a good story connected with the book. We sent a young man down to visit Georgia O'Keefe and ask for her agreement to participate. Georgia could be prickly, so we chose as our envoy a young man whose father had given her the land on which she had her house and studio. And indeed he was given a warm reception and tour. When they parted, Georgia said she would sign. but then added "If you will tell me the location of my painting that I gave to the Art Institute, 'East River from the Shelton.'" We were overjoyed and asked the American Arts Department to let us see it. As Georgia knew, it had presumably been stolen years before, and a full search could not locate it. But she relented (I think she enjoyed her joke) and signed the books anyway!" Printed and bound by RR Donnelley & Sons' Lakeside Press. Bound in very fine dark red Morocco leather with beautiful gold gilt on the page edges. In beautiful very fine condition. THE BOOK: The book measures 10.5" x 14." In addition to the valuable signature pages, this large book contains beautiful color reproductions of 100 of the most magnificent art treasures that the Art Institute of Chicago holds in trust, including paintings by the artists who signed the book. Enclosed in a heavy wood clamshell box covered by matching red leather with a large gold gilt lion on the front lid. The art world has now lost all of these great artists but in this book their signatures and their paintings live on. A very special and collectable book. Weighs over 10 lb.

Near Fine, single page from watermarked Hotel Belles-Rives paper, typed and boldly signed by Marc Chagall. Toning to bottom edge of paper, minimal wear, very well-preserved. One corrected typed character, covered with white-out. An unusual and emotive artist statement/poem, by Chagall, based on his work "The Apparition (1917-1918)," describing in beautiful imagery a "dream" "evoked" in Chagall. Chagall had reported that the painting was based his memory of a dream while a student; this statement either stands in captivating juxtaposition with that original dream, or is an allusion to, or perhaps description of, that dream. Lovely, rare, unique. Certificate of Authenticity included. [Image in listing of painting for illustrative purposes only; no prints, etc., included].

Michel BUTOR, Le Boeuf Écorché / in memoriam Marc Chagall, poème, livre peint par Anne Slacik, Rivières Lucinges Pompignan, Décembre 2005, couverture blanche imprimée à rabats peinte de bout en bout par l'artiste, en feuilles, 7 double f., 22x16,5cm. XII exemplaires, tous uniques. Belle impression sur papier d'Arches, papier de prédilection de l'artiste. Exemplaire n°10 justifié et signé par l'artiste et l'auteur au colophon. Il s'agit du 346e livre édité par les Éditions de Rivières initiées par Jean-Paul Martin, petit cousin de Pierre André Benoit, en 2002, dans la continuité des éditions PAB, et le septième d'une longue collaboration entre Michel Butor et les Éditions de Rivières qui comprendre une centaine de livres. Le boeuf écorché est publié ici en édition originale. Il relève de l'ekphrasis ou transposition d'art du tableau éponyme de Marc Chagall conservé au Centre Pompidou, à Paris. Le tableau de Chagall s'inscrit dans la grande tradition de représentation picturale de ce thème de nature morte ou de peinture de genre, cher aux peintres du Nord, depuis le XVIe siècle, comme Pieter Aertsen, Joachim Beuckelaer, Van Cleve, Pieter Brueghel, Joachim Beuckelaer, Frans Snyders et bien sûr Rembrandt. Le memento mori ou « souviens-toi que tu es mortel », suggéré dans le chef-d'oeuvre de Rembrandt, est transposé chez Chagall dans son petit village enneigé de Vitebsk et met en scène la tension entre le sacré et le profane dans la dimension sacrificielle de l'animal. Michel Butor en propose une lecture à la fois descriptive et poétique toute personnelle. Anne Slacik est intervenue dans l'ouvrage dans une composition à pleine page pour la page de titre, une composition à pleine page en frontispice, une grande composition en double page, une composition à pleine page en clôture du poème de Michel Butor, une dernière composition au colophon. « C'est un boucher céleste qui vient de sacrifier l'animal qui s'abreuve avec son propre sang son oeil rouge est ouvert comme pour nous narguer sa peau s'est déroulée pour recouvrir la nuit A travers les pignons du village transi on voit s'interroger les couples affamés les oiseaux affolés cherchent à s'échapper sur la neige des toits ou le verglas des ruelles Les larmes de sa graisse nourrissant les chandelles qui répandent leur lueur de pourpre et de savons sur les sommeils troublés dans les chambres étroites ou devant les autels des églises désertes Le martyre animal crucifié dans la nuit répand sur notre exil sa réconciliation réchauffant notre coeur dans la déréliction où nous avaient laissés prophètes et parents Nous le dévorerons pour acquérir sa force sa patience et ses cornes qui s'illumineront et les cieux s'ouvriront délivrés des couteaux pour fondre notre neige et brûler notre sang. » Tirage d'une très grande rareté car un nombre infime d'exemplaires a circulé. Ouvrage en parfait état de conservation. * ** Anne Slacik est née à Narbonne en 1959. Elle vit et travaille à Saint-Denis et dans le Gard. Après des études en arts plastiques à l'Université de Provence, puis à l'Université de Paris I, elle est agrégée en arts plastiques puis enseigne jusqu'en 1990. Prix de peinture de la fondation Fénéon en 1991, elle se consacre entièrement depuis à son art. Outre son importante oeuvre peinte, largement plébiscitée, Anne Slacik excelle dans le domaine du livre peint.
