| [ART] MOORE, Daniel. Autograph Letter Signed with drawing to Dave Haselwood of Auerhahn Press. n.p.:n.p., [1966]. 2 pages on one large quarto sheet. Boston, no date but ca. 1965. An amazing, densely-packed letter that is part surreal, occult, poetic rant and part informative letter. Moore's wide-ranging observations cover everything from the state of the strife-filled world, to America's destiny and the various "Darker Spirits" and "shaman-spirts" whose forces are at play. He goes on to compare San Francisco, Boston, and LA, discusses the work of John Wieners, talks about his own book Dawn Visions for which he is doing hand-painted covers, asks Haselwood to send him copies of Lami and Destroyed Works, mentions his travels to "places Buddha treads and Christ lays down and gives from his heart jets of Saturnian sperm," and much more. In the top corner Moore has done a color drawing of a human-faced bird on a perch with an egg and a swastika clutched in its claw. Some light sepia staining, creased where originally folded in fourths to make a small packet with a short tear along one fold, but thoroughly presentable. A wonderful letter very much reflective of Moore's interests and talent as a poet. SKB-14633 | |
| [ART] MOORE, Daniel. Original untitled watercolor painting by poet and artist, Daniel Moore. n.p.:n.p., [1966]. An opulent and exuberant metaphysical fantasy scene. At the bottom is a man in the lotus position, above him a naked woman emerging from a flower-like cocoon is exchanging breath with a blue, naked woman who hovers nearby. All this against a background of black, purple, yellow, orange, and red with various decorative embellishments. If you've seen his illustrations in his books you know his style, but this is the only full-fledged painting by him that we've seen and it's lovely. Though not signed the work is unmistakably his and the provenance is rock-solid having come from the archive of his friend, Dave Haselwood of Auerhahn Press. Clean pin holes to the corners, slight loss to the top corners (easily matted out with no loss of image), creased where twice folded, but entirely presentable overall (26" x 20"). SKB-14626 | |
