Lot no. 191
HUIDOBRO (Vicente). Ecuatorial. Madrid, Imprenta Pueyo, 1918. Small in-4, bradel half unbleached cloth, fragment of the cover pasted to the front cover (later binding). Extremely rare first edition of this collection by one of the major voices of modern Chilean and South American poetry.
This collection of poems composed in Paris in 1918 and dedicated to Pablo Picasso is missing from the BnF, as it is from all French public collections. It was not republished until sixty years later, in 1978, in Santiago, Chile.
Autograph signed letter from the author to Marcelle Auclair, con mucho aprecio, recuerdo y homenaje, on the first blank page.
Marcelle Auclair (1899-1983), a woman of letters and co-founder of Marie Claire magazine with Jean Prouvost, spent part of her childhood and youth in Chile and published her first work in Spanish, La Novela del amor doliente (Santiago, Chile, 1923). She returned to France in 1924 as a correspondent for the Chilean newspaper La Nación.
Also included: Creation. [N°3]. Paris, February 1924. Stapled 8-page in-8 issue (including cover). Very rare final issue of this avant-garde review founded and edited by Vincent Huidobro in 1921. It contains the texts Manifeste peut-être et Film by Huidobro, Précise by Tristan Tzara, Camille Desmoulins by René Crevel, Paysage involontaire by Juan Larrea and Cahiers d'un mammifère by Erik Satie.
