Mclean, Ruari (ed) : Motif : March 1960

Shenval Press, Soho, 1960

104 pages (complete). 'Motif' was well-ahead of its time despite its short life of only thirteen issues. Ruari Mclean stated in the first issue that this was 'a periodical for which the visual world exists' and that it was for 'the non-specialist, the ordinary man . who is prepared to use his eyes to find out and evaluate what he likes". In its lifetime and in this issue 'Motif' beautifully and thoroughly covered all forms of visual art. This issue is thrilling in its breadth and concept. The cover by Laurence Scarfe is worn; the spine has damage to the head. Yet, it is vivid and shiveringly vibrant. The contents are sure, confident, urbane, clean, clear, tight, sensationally exciting. fk. Book Condition: Poor. Binding: Hardcover. Jacket: No Jacket
