 [CHILDREN BOOK / MODERN ART]. HEERUP, HENRY:, Legedage (Playdays). K¿benhavn 1969.
[CHILDREN BOOK / MODERN ART]. HEERUP, HENRY:
Legedage (Playdays). K¿benhavn 1969.
. Royal folio. Size: 62.5 x 57.4 cm. Album including preface (one page) and eight brightly coloured lithographs mounted in passe-partout. Signed and numbered by Heerup. Publisher's half cloth portfolio with colour decorated boards, original ties. First edition, number 75 of 100 copies on vélin d'Arches. (Another twenty-five copies were issued for collaborators). Printed by J. Chr. S¿rensen and published by Centre Graphique in Copenhagen.An outstanding work by the great Danish artist Heerup illustrating his childhood. Henry Heerup (1907-99) worked all through his life with painting, sculpture, etching and drawing. He was not concerned with the need for originality in art, preferring instead to reach a wide public rather than creating superior art for museums. Heerup was a member of the Cobra movement and participated in its exhibitions at Amsterdam in 1949 and at Liège in 1952. Heerup first became famous for his junk sculptures. He created eccentric and strange figures made out of old bedposts, broken toys and old trash which he found on his daily bicycle rides. It was as a painter and graphic artist that Heerup gained his popular breakthrough. He developed his own unique and imaginative style where the fundamental source of his narrative is ordinary life; everyday settings including love, family, children, sex, etc. This work is devoted to Heerups' own childhood, illustrating: The young Henry playing with a huge dog, riding a bike when he lost a gramophone, beaten by the schoolmaster, dressed up as a knight battling bedbugs, dancing to a street organ, sharing the Christmas porridge with a cat, climbing up onto the roof of a tram, a policeman chasing naughty boys, etc. Rare. Collectors often frame the lithographs and very few complete copies of this book have thus survived. Ref. Holstebro Kunstmuseum and Arken Museum of Modern Art ("Henry Heerup: Faith, Hope and Charity" 2003).

Phili ou Par-delà le bien et le mal. Paris, édition de la Guirlande, 1921.
. 4to. Pp. 156. With twelve pochoir engraved plates by Brunelleschi, protected by tissue guards. Ninety-three colour vignettes in the text. As issued, loose in original printed wrappers. Housed in a specially made box. Limited edition of 275, of which 250 on vergé d'Arches, this is number 156. Umberto Brunelleschi, Italian-born artist who arrived in Paris in 1900. He soon became one of the leading illustrators and costume designer of that time. Hermant's novel "Phili, ou par-delà le bien et le mal" is about a prince Philippe-Egon and the beautiful young girl Sophie. The story unfolds in a flamboyant setting of luxury, dance and seduction. The novel is complemented by the exquisite images of Brunelleschi, which exemplify the emerging Art Deco style of the 1920s. Occasionally some offsetting from plates as normal and some leaves with light browning to outer edge. Two plates with small light crease at margin but it's a great fresh copy of Brunelleschi's chef-d'oeuvre. Ercoli G. Il Pochoir Art Déco' pp. 32.
