Jacques Villon
The text describes the art of Jacques Villon (1875-1963) in the collection of Jack Leissring. It includes 350 works on paper, 77 of which are either unique or artist's proofs. The work was gathered over a period of forty-one years from world-wide sources. This collection may be the most significant collection of the print-work of Jacques Villon. The book is extensively referenced and includes translated citings of the standard French text on Villon by Jacqueline Auberty and Charles Pérussaux. There is an image of each work in color. In addition to an essay about Villon's significance to him, the author discusses poets and poetry which importantly influenced Villon's work. The book will prove to be an important reference source for those interested in the etchings and lithographs of Villon.

Art and Letters, Love and Desires
Ellen Koment first met Jack Leissring in 1969, when he came to her studio in Valley Ford, CA., and bought the first of many of her paintings. Since then they have been mutual inspirations and good friends. Jack was the collector (perhaps patron) that every artist dreams of, Ellen was the artist that every lover of art hopes to find. In 1995 they were in a French Cafe in San Francisco, where Jack suggested that men, in general, and, specifically he, didn't really understand how women thought. Ellen responded that, while she couldn't speak for all women, she would try to share her responses to art, relationships, and love, any and all things that friends share. These letters, by email, were what came from the conversation.

Jacques Villon-Cubist Work on Paper
Jacques Villon is one of the 20th Century's most significant artists. Stanley Hayter and others have called Villon "the father of modern print-making." Jacques Villon, actually named Gaston Duchamp, was probably the most significant peintre-graveur of the twentieth century in France. This book explores a segment of his painting and print-making skills, one commonly known as Cubism. Villon, and his brothers were a part of a group of infuential intellectual painters, poets and essayists who met regularly in villon's studio. His work is intimately connected with ideas that originated there. The author, in 2011, completed a definitive catalog of the entire collection of villon's work gathered over a forty year period--350 graphic and painting works on paper. The present study focuses specifically on 53 Cubist-related images from that collection, and discusses the influence of the "Section d'Or" on the artist's working method. The work is extensively referenced.
