Edited by Alfred Pacquement with an essay by Raymond Bellour, Henri Michaux: Peintures offers a rich survey of Michaux’s artistic evolution. This 1993 Gallimard volume traces the artist’s journey from early surreal gouaches and ink drawings to the large-scale ink paintings of his later years, illustrating how Michaux’s visual practice grew alongside his poetic work. Pacquement and Bellour contextualize the artist’s shift from literature to painting as a freeing of himself from words, highlighting Michaux’s imaginative explorations — including hallucinatory mescaline drawings — that define his unique place in 20th-century art.
This book is a clothbound hardcover with a printed dust jacket, measuring 28.9 × 23 cm and spanning 320 pages. It features high-quality reproductions in both color and black & white, offering a vivid visual experience of Michaux’s work. Published in Paris by Gallimard in 1993, the volume remains in very good vintage condition, with clean, bright interior pages and an intact dust jacket showing only minor handling marks.
