Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Back in print after over a decade: the playful and genre-shattering memoir of a beloved surrealist known for her gender-bending portraitureFirst published in 1930 by anti-fascist, avant-garde publisher Éditions du Carrefour in Paris as Aveux non Avenus, Cancelled Confessions (or Disavowals) is Claude Cahun's wildly radical answer to an invitation to write a memoir. Shattering the very premise of the 'memoir'--the singularity of identity--into sharp and prismatic fragments, Cahun assembles an ever-mutating inquiry into the instability of 'self' and its many masks.Using a multitude of forms (fables, jokes, aphorisms, letters, dialogues, dreams, hymns, pronouncements, etc.), to plumb the subjects of desire, love, gender, sex, fear, faith, religion and vanity (among others), Cancelled Confessions (or Disavowals) is a tour-de-force work of resistance: it provokes the reader to enter the capacious, provocative, playful and deeply imaginative space constructed by Cahun in defiance of all categorization, to repudiate a delimited, censured world and embrace, instead, the outcasts and cast-offs, the unknowable and the unknown.Thoughtfully redesigned to emulate the original artist's book, this revised edition of the out-of-print English translation by Susan de Muth--originally published in the UK by the Tate in 2007 and in the US by MIT Press in 2008--includes novelist and critic Pierre Mac Orlan's original 1930 preface along with contemporary essays by scholar Amelia Groom and translator de Muth. Almost 100 years old, Cancelled Confessions is not only prescient, but urgent: 'It is not enough to be vanquished, you also have to turn defeat to your advantage.'Born in France in 1894, Claude Cahun (née Lucy Renée Mathilde Schwob) was a writer, artist and anti-fascist activist, associated with the Surrealists, yet who was obscure for decades. Cahun's shape-shifting, gender-bending, 'self' portraits--made in collaboration with Marcel Moore (née Suzanne Malherbe, aka l'autre moi, 'the other me')--feature Cahun in androgynous garb with shaved head, or elaborately costumed and adorned with makeup or masks, often with mirrors or doubling, always multiplying the 'I.' These are the most recognizable works in a highly subversive, multiform oeuvre that includes Aveux non Avenus (Cancelled Confessions) as well as more untranslated writings. Now embraced as a pioneer of queer and feminist expression and heralded for a daring and inventive, years-long resistance to the Nazi occupation of the Isle of Jersey, Cahun created art--and a life--that aimed to disrupt societal, political and artistic orthodoxies with courage, wit and imagination. Moore, Marcel (illustrator).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Cancelled Confessions reveals Claude Cahun to be a major surrealist writer and pioneering queer theorist almost a century ahead of her time.'The re-appearance of this glittering and dissenting semi-lost epic is a gift. Cahun's writing is stylish, playful and prescient, peopled with angel slang, flowering disavowals, God's lipstick and an infinite layering of masks.' Daisy Lafarge, author. In 1930, Claude Cahun (born Lucy Schwob) and her partner, artist Marcel Moore (born Suzanne Malherbe) published their surrealist masterpiece, Aveux non Avenus, translated here as Cancelled Confessions and available in English for the first time in twenty years.Susan de Muth's revised translation of Cancelled Confessions has a new introduction by art historian Amelia Groom which contextualizes it within contemporary queer discourse.'It's a surrealist, trans, queer, autofiction, (anti)memoir, and also none of those things. It's a text, and a life, felt as connection and at the same time completely singular.' McKenzie Wark, author. 'The kaleidoscopic text is pieced together from diverse fragments. there are philosophical and subversive theological musings, aphorisms and fables, letters and dialogues, dreams and hymns, nightmares and jokes,' writes Groom.The book's nine sections are prefaced by dreamlike photomontages (reproduced in high definition here) which reflect, illuminate and converse with the verbal content.Upon publication, Aveux non Avenus simply baffled all but a few of Cahun's friends and admirers, leading Cahun to describe herself as, 'An unwanted Cassandra'. Now, however, is the time of the remarkably prescient Cahun and Moore.'Cahun was a pioneer of gender-bending role-playing.eerily ahead of her time she has attracted an almost cult-like following.' The late David BowieCahun and Moore's appeal is wide and universal. They were adventurers in life as in art. Cahun famously terrified Andre Breton in the 1920s when she appeared in a Paris café with her head shaved and painted gold. Having moved to Jersey in 1938, Cahun and Moore waged a mischievous two-person resistance campaign against the occupying Nazi forces from 1940. Finally caught and imprisoned in 1944, they were sentenced to death in 1945, saved at the very last moment by the armistice.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Eva ein Opfer von Werbeanzeigen, Penelope eine Kokette, Aschenputtel eine Masochistin Claude Cahun präsentiert fünfzehn Heroinnen von Judith über Sappho und Salome bis hin zum »Gretchen«, wie man sie noch nie gesehen hatte. Dafür schöpft sie aus allen Quellen der abendländischen Hall of Fame wie antiker Mythologie, Bibel, Märchen und Fabeln, ergänzt um eigene Fiktion. Das 1920-1924 entstandene, Fragment gebliebene Projekt der Heroinnen steht in der Tradition der Moralités légendaires (1887) von Jules Laforgue und der Vies imaginaires (1896) von Cahuns Onkel Marcel Schwob, aber auch von Repräsentanten moderner dichterischer Mythendeutung wie Wilde und Cocteau. Monologisch angelegt, teils als Stream of Consciousness, voller Illusionsbrüche, ironisch, unverfroren und provokant, sollen die Heroinnen niemanden gleichgültig lassen. Um im patriarchalischen Kapitalismus die Macht des Gewordenen über das Bewußtsein zu brechen und für neue Identitäten Raum zu schaffen, überantwortet Cahun die zu totem Bildungsgut versteinerte Vergangenheit wieder dem Mythos, damit sie durch Phantasie zu neuem Leben erweckt werde. Claude Cahun, die große queere Künstlerin, ist als gender- und identitätssprengende Photographin und Collagistin heute weltweit bekannt, mit ihren transgeschlechtlichen Selbstporträts eine Ikone der Postmoderne. Cahuns literarische Werke indes sind im Panorama der Moderne eine einzigartige Erscheinung und unabdingbar zum Verständnis ihres revolutionären ästhetischen und politischen Programms.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very good. 26 x 26cm 240pp very good hardback in dust jacket. Contents divided into sections including: Claude Cahun Theatre, Claude Cahun Portraits, Marcel Moore Portraits. All texts supported by black and white reproductions. Claude Cahun was a French surrealist photographer, sculptor, and writer who adopted the pseudonym Claude Cahun in 1914. Cahun is best known as a writer and self-portraitist, who assumed a variety of performative personae. In her writing, Cahun mostly referred to herself with grammatically feminine words but she also said that her actual gender was fluid. For example, in what is generally considered to be her masterpiece, 'Aveux non Avenus' (1930), available in English as Cancelled Confessions or Disavowals, Cahun writes: "Masculine? Feminine? It depends on the situation. Neuter is the only gender that always suits me." Cahun is most well known for her androgynous appearance, which challenged the strict gender roles of her time. …

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. In May 1930 Éditions Carrefour of Paris published 500 copies of a book called Aveux non avenues, in which Cahun produced the nearest thing to a memoir. But in fact the book is an anti-memoir, a critique of autobiography, where she uses subversive photomontages and statements to present herself as a force of genius possessed of the need to resist identification and to maintain within herself "the mania of the exception." Disavowals is the first appearance of that work, widely considered to be her most important text, in English. Reproductions of the original photomontages introduce the various sections, which in turn explore Cahun's distinctive ideas and obsessions—self-interrogation, narcissism, metamorphosis, love, gender-switching, humor, fear. xxvi, 226 pages : illustrations (photographs). ; 23 cm. First English edition, first printing. Slight shelf wear to edges, light creasing to front cover corners, no inscriptions, tight and square binding. Photographs available on request.
