Les Transparents. Alès : PAB, 1967.
Édition illustrée de 4 cartalégraphies de Picasso à pleine page.

Les Transparents furent d'abord publiés au Mercure de France en mars 1949. L'illustration de Picasso utilise la technique de la cartalégraphie, mise au point par Pierre-André Benoit en 1959 pour le livre Dans vos jardins, qui consiste à tirer un carton à la manière d'une gravure : "Le principe en est simple : un carton plat ou ondulé, souple ou plus rigide, est découpé, déchiré, incisé, ou gratté par l'artiste, puis fixé par l'imprimeur sur un support à la hauteur typographique, finalement encré puis imprimé." (Coron) Le 10 octobre 1966, Yvonne Zervos obtint de Picasso deux masques telluriques en cartalégraphie, auxquels se rajoutèrent deux masques supplémentaires confectionnés par l'artiste sous les yeux de l'éditeur en février 1967. Char dédie ses poèmes aux "Transparents ou vagabonds luni-solaires [qui] ont de nos jours à peu près complètement disparu des bourgs et des forêts où on avait coutume de les apercevoir." Goeppert-Cramer, Picasso, n° 138 ; Coron, Le Fruit donné, pp. 60-61 et 75-76 ; Les livres de Picasso réalisés par PAB, n° 454.

In-4 (324 x 252 mm). Première édition illustrée. Tirage limité à 60 exemplaires sur Vélin de Rives, celui-ci le n° 24, signé par l'artiste et l'auteur. Illustré de 4 cartalégraphies originales de Pablo Picasso à pleine page. En feuilles, sous couverture rempliée, chemise et étui.
