(BOSSCHERE, Jean de) ARTAUD, Antonin. L'Art et la Mort. Paris L'Enseigne des Trois Magots, 1929. Octavo (28 cm). 87 pp. One of 749 numbered copies on vélin pur fil Lafuma, with a frontispiece illustration by Jean de Bosschère. Some light wear and darkening to head and foot of spine and a small closed tear to front wrapper; else a very good copy in publisher's printed wrappers. First edition of this series of meditations on art and death by the impresario of "total theater." Artaud is perhaps the most influential figure in the modern theater in spite of, or perhaps because of, his madness. The present copy inscribed by Artaud to O.G. Van Hecke on front free end paper. Artaud presentations are rare. OCLC 32608477 43380979 458528691
