Beach, Mary

Original Collage Artwork by Mary Beach: Adam & Eve

Cherry Valley, NY: Mary Beach, 2001. Original Artwork. Single Sheet. Signed by Mary Beach. Offered here is an original, untitled 2001 collage artwork (appx. 11 x 14") by Mary Beach (1919-2006), who along with her husband Claude Pelieu (1934-2002) was at the Paris-based center of cutting-edge cut-up writing & collage art. She was also the mother of Pamela Beach Plymell & therefore the mother-in-law of Legendary Literary Outlaw Extraordinaire Charles Plymell. The Beach-Pelieus intersected & collaborated with the Plymells, William S. Burroughs (who was of course her cut-up mentor & inspiration) & many others. The superior provenance of all Third Mind Books’ Mary Beach, Claude Pelieu, and Charles Plymell offerings makes clear that we are THE source for collectibles relating to the nonconformist trinity of Bastard Angels noted above. It doesn’t get any closer to The Source than this! At lower right-hand corner, Beach has hand-signed her name in thick pencil: signature reads, “Mary Beach ’01.” Collage in very fine condition, virtually as new with only essentially as new with only faintest flecks of shelf-wear to fine-edges. Very Fine. [Item #5062]
