About This Item
Vision Press, publishers, London 1958 hardcover, 6" x 9¼", with jacket parts mounted to boards Ours is an ex-library copy with jacket front mounted to cover, and 'blurb' mounted on front endpapers - book has usual stamps, stickers, barcode, pocket etc. Book in GOOD condition In this book, Salvador Dali takes a sharp look at modern art, and doesn't like what he sees! "Nothing," he writes "has ever aged more rapidly and more poorly than modern art." Here he evaluates the work of Picasso, Cezanne, Mondrian, Turner, Jackson Pollock and others. Here is Dali at his pungent best. This book has renderings of fifteen of the paintings Dali deals with in the text, and fifty-seven of Dali's calligraphic devices as decorations. Dali also designed the book's jacket.
