Interview text with David Quéré at the end of the book.
It was undoubtedly Raymond Queneau's book, One Hundred Thousand Billion Poems, that Vera Molnar thought of when she bought a small notebook in Switzerland a few years ago, with each page divided into four strips. But here Vera Molnar invented her rule of the game. She drew with a gouache pen, using four colors and four different thicknesses, on a hundred pages, profiles of the Sainte-Victoire mountain dear to Cézanne."Several factors led me to Sainte-Victoire: Cézanne, France, the Luberon, but also the search for a curve that is neither parabolic nor hyperbolic. One has so few ideas in one's head that one cooks them all one's life... ".
In total, this 112-page book-object offers exactly 6,765,201 combinations of the Sainte-Victoire mountain.

Interior in very good condition.; Limited edition of 2,000 copies of which this is 793.; Among the arts of Japan, the colour print continues to exercise the strongest appeal to us in the West. The main reason for the present widespread and growing interest is the powerful design combined with the beauty of the colour harmonies of the prints. But there are also other reasons; they depict a Japan of the past now almost vanished, its culture, mores, annual events, legends and its history; and they also show the influence of the Japanese print on the evolution of modern Western art. In the last few years the most important event in the world of…

The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
