Les nombreuses grandes expositions de dessins et de pages de carnet dessinées d'Antonin Artaud organisées ces dernières années – au Museum of Modern Art de New York, au Museum moderner Kunst (mumok) de Vienne et au Centre Georges Pompidou de Paris – ont profondément transformé la perception de l'œuvre de l'artiste, la réorientant vers les œuvres de ses dernières années. Ce volume rassemble les trois écrits majeurs d'Artaud sur ses travaux graphiques, réalisés à la même époque que son essai sur l'œuvre de Van Gogh, « l'homme suicidé par la société ». Ces trois textes constituent des explorations et des reconfigurations anatomiques intensives.
« The Human Face » (« Le visage humain », 1947), écrit comme texte de catalogue pour la seule et unique exposition en galerie des dessins d'Artaud de son vivant, aborde sa démarche pour réaliser les portraits de ses amis dans le pavillon décrépit de la banlieue parisienne où il a passé la dernière année de sa vie. « Ten years that language is gone » (« Dix ans que le langage est parti », 1947) examine les dessins qu'Artaud a réalisés dans ses carnets – son principal moyen de création à la fin de sa vie – et leur capacité à susciter sa créativité lorsque le langage lui faisait défaut. « 50 Drawings to assassinate magic » (« 50 dessins pour assassiner la magie », 1948), vestige d'un livre abandonné de dessins d'Artaud, aborde l'acte de dessiner comme moyen de défense. Ces trois textes extraordinaires, qui oscillent entre l'écriture et l'image, témoignent de l'intensité de l'engagement d'Artaud dans l'acte de dessiner.

Antonin Artaud (1896-1948) is one of the seminal figures of twentieth-century writing, art, and sound experimentation, known especially for his work with the Surrealist movement, his performance theories, his asylum incarcerations, and his artworks which have been exhibited in major exhibitions, at New York's MOMA, and many other art museums.
Stephen Barber is the author of over thirty books. He has received many awards from international foundations, including the Rockefeller Foundation and the Henkel Foundation, among others. His recent books include White Noise Ballrooms and The Projectionists. He is professor at Kingston University, London, and a research fellow of the Free University, Berlin.
Clayton Eshleman (1935-2021) spent many decades on his translations of Artaud's work. He was also an acclaimed poet and translator of other works, such as those of Aimé Césaire, and was a professor notably at the California Institute of the Arts and the University of California, Los Angeles.

Paperback. Etat : New. The first comprehensive collection in English of Antonin Artaud's writings on his artworks. The many major exhibitions of Antonin Artaud's drawings and drawn notebook pages in recent years-at New York's Museum of Modern Art, Vienna's Museum Moderner Kunst, and Paris's Centre Georges Pompidou-have entirely transformed our perception of his work, reorienting it toward the artworks of his final years. This volume collects all three of Artaud's major writings on his artworks. "The Human Face" (1947) was written as the catalog text for Artaud's only gallery exhibition of his drawings during his lifetime, focusing on his approach to making portraits of his friends at the decrepit pavilion in the Paris suburbs where he spent the final year of his life. "Ten years that language is gone" (1947) examines the drawings Artaud made in his notebooks-his main creative medium at the end of his life-and their capacity to electrify his creativity when language failed him. "50 Drawings to assassinate magic" (1948), the residue of an abandoned book of Artaud's drawings, approaches the act of drawing as part of the weaponry deployed by Artaud at the very end of his life to combat malevolent assaults and attempted acts of assassination. Together, these three extraordinary texts-pitched between writing and image-project Artaud's ferocious engagement with the act of drawing. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9783035802481
