Poemes Et Bois / Iliazd ; Hausmann, Raoul., 1961

 Item
Identifier: CC-57170-57569
Scope and Contents

Sims Reed: This is an innovative collaboration between Iliazd and Raoul Hausmann, one of the principal protagonists of Berlin Dada and a pioneer of phonetic and visual poetry. The preface consists of a 'Hommage illettre d'Iliazd à Raoul Hausmann': 'Je suis fier de vous rendre hommage en disposant vos poemes et vos bois ou en tenant le plioir comme une plume.'. 'The typographic layout echoes the forms in the woodcuts, suggesting an architectonic underpinning to the very essence of the work. Poems and images seem to have the same skeletal foundation to their morphology, as a result showing two aspects of a single work.' (Johanna Drucker, Iliazd and the Art of the Book). Some water staining on cover, foxing on inside pages. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
