AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Description:
Exceptional reference monograph dedicated to Jacques Villeglé (1926-2022), a major figure and co-founder of the Nouveau Réalisme movement. This monumental work of more than 700 pages, published in 2007 by the prestigious Linda & Guy Pieters Editions, offers the most comprehensive retrospective of the artist’s work, famous for his ripped street posters.
Features and Highlights:
Unique signature: Copy enriched on the title page with a complete cursive writing of his name in "Alphabet Socio-Politique" (his iconic graphical signs alphabet using political and religious symbols), paired with his classic cursive signature "J. Villeglé". A rare collector’s item.
Edition: First edition / Original edition (June 2007).
Texts: Major contributions by Odile Felgine and the artist.
Format: Large and substantial volume presented in its original illustrated publisher’s box.
Language: French.
Condition: Very good overall. The interior and page edges are impeccably white and fresh (see photos).
The rigid thermoformed and illustrated case is complete, solid, with very light signs of minor wear on the glossy plastic. The book’s hardcover binding is perfectly tight.
Shipping:
Fast and particularly careful shipping with tracking and insurance (given the book’s substantial weight, over 4.5 kg).
