The Documents of 20th-Century Art : Arp on Arp, Poems, Essays, Memories

Jean Arp, Marcel Jean, Robert Motherwell, Arthur A. Cohen, Joachim Neugroschel, Bernard Karpel

description

A collection of essays and poems by the artist Jean Arp. Edited by Robert Motherwell and Arthur A. Cohen. Translated by Joachim Neugroschel. Bibliography compiled by Bernard Karpel. "Although far better known for his sculpture than for his writing, Jean Arp expressed himself in poetry throughout his life, and it is an essential part of his oeuvre. As Sir Herbert Read pointed out, 'the poetry of Arp is inseparable from his plastic work and a full understanding of his genius and development must take into account both arts.'" -- taken from back of book. Includes numerous black-and-white illustrations, as well as a bibliographical survey and bibliographical notes.
