LA PEINTURE MODERNE TCHECOSLOVAQUE. 1948.

n.p. (Paris); Editions de la Connaissance 1948

21 x 16.5cm, 132pp plus original wrappers. 64 b/w and 1 full colour plate illustrating the 24 artists included. Essay by Madelaine Collard. The comparison with a similar contemporaneous English show is interesting – no Styrsky or Toyen and only a few surrealists are noted (the overwhelming comparison is with the impressionists and fauves) but J. Capek, Sima, Janousek, Tichy and others are included. The binding is loose causing the colour plate to come loose and the printed wrappers are marked with ink on one edge.
