EMERSON, RALPH WALDO. 1803-1882.:Autograph Manuscript from Emerson\'s notebook, discussing key figures of the French Enlightenment and the Academie, 241 x 182 mm, laid into a larger sheet, ink on light blue paper, numbered \"80\" in upper right corner, [Boston? c.1853], tape to verso at fold.

AN UNPUBLISHED AUTOGRAPH LEAF FROM EMERSON\'S NOTEBOOK CONCERNING FIGURES OF THE FRENCH ENLIGHTENMENT. Headed \"Academie,\" the manuscript gives a brief relation of major French thinkers to the Academie Francaise: Richelieu \"wd not have established it if he cd have seen revolution in it...\"; Saint-Pierre \"induced the Acad to substitute Hope of great men for frivolous subjects\"; Montesquieu \"said, the academie had no other functions than to chatter without end.\" Emerson had visited Paris during the revolution of 1848 and held a high opinion of the French. It is likely this manuscript was produced in 1853 in conjunction with an important series of lectures Emerson would give beginning in January 1854, including \"France, or Urbanity.\" The subject, tone and wit exhibited in the manuscript resemble that of the lecture but has never been published or identified in the lecture.

Lucio Fontana\'s first perforated canvases were created in 1949, and a decade later the artist began to work on his famous cuts through the canvas. Holes and cuts, buchi and tagli, became variations on Fontana\'s fundamental concept. The \"Olii\", on which Fontana worked intensively from the early 1960s, are also dominated by deep punctures and scratches.

With the radical gesture of piercing, the flat surface of the image is broken. The light falls through the openings, creating a new spatiality and depth. In this way, Fontana crosses a boundary that opens a new dimension and thus a new freedom for art - a revolutionary path in art history.

Accordingly, Fontana names his works \"Concetti Spaziali\" - spatial concepts: \"A hole is the beginning of a sculpture in space. My works are not pictures, but art concepts.\" Fontana allows the art genres - architecture, painting, sculpture - to merge into one another. In his Concetti Spaziali, real and imagined space combine; the view into the hole challenges the viewer\'s imagination. At the same time, the material character of the canvas or object is made tangible by piercing and cutting through it.

Fontana\'s \"Olii\" of the 1960s, as well as his metal works which were created during the same period, bear witness to the artist\'s sensual relationship to the material. He was fascinated by the texture of the malleable, slightly plastic oil paint, which is particularly well-suited to making visible gestures of scoring, piercing, or cutting. Fontana plays with the possibilities of handling canvas, paint, metal, glass or even light: the artistic gesture develops on the material and brings its potential to life.

\"The hole is my invention, that is all there is to it.
After this invention, I can die.\"
Lucio Fontana

This work is the prototype for the multiple, published by Schulz Museum, Santa Rosa, California see: Matthias Koddenberg, Jörg Schellmann: Christo and Jeanne-Claude: Prints and Objects. Catalogue Raisonné, p. 213, no 188

Charles M. Schulz (1922-2000) was the cartoonist of the globally successful comic series \"Peanuts\". The 美国 author and illustrator portrayed 美国 suburban life from the perspective of a group of children in the daily comic strips, which ran for decades. Peanuts was special in that it combined pointed wit with philosophical reflection.

Most of the comic strips focus on the main characters Charlie Brown and his dog Snoopy. Snoopy, the white dog with the black floppy ears, is now considered an integral part of our popular culture.
Snoopy lives in a kennel in Charlie Brown\'s garden. There, the beagle spends most of his time lying lazily on the roof of his hut, the so-called Snoopy Dog House, pondering his philosophical thoughts while waiting for his next meal.

In 1975, Charles M. Schulz met the packaging artists Jeanne-Claude and Christo at a discussion group in Colorado. The cartoonist then paid tribute to the artist couple by creating a Peanuts comic strip in 1978 in which Christo wraps Snoopy‘s House in fabric. In the comic strip, Snoopy wonders what Christo will cover next and finds his house wrapped at the end of the sequence. Christo returned the cartoonist\'s compliment by turning the comic image into reality decades later, designing a life-size, three-dimensional doghouse for the Charles M. Schulz Museum and wrapping it in tarpaulin, polyethylene and rope.
The work offered here is an original collage with real fabric wrapping, created by Christo in 1994 as a prototype for the later multiple. The multiple is number 188 in the catalogue raisonné.
This original work came from the estate of printer Jack Lemon, who founded his life\'s work, the Landfall Press, in Chicago in 1970. Lemon and his team printed lithographs by Christo, Philip Pearlstein and Sol LeWitt, among others.
