Attached is a manuscript a.s. by André François, Le Trompe-l'oeuf dans la décoration (1 p. in-4); plus 2 pages of an unidentified text on art. Typescript of an interview by André Parinaud [partly published in Arts, February 19, 1958], notably on abstract art ("I am violently against [...] abstract experience is a dead end," "young painting," etc.); he crossed out the last two questions and answers before signing. On another sheet, Pierre Bergé answered four more questions for Buffet; Buffet signed. Arts asked Buffet to attend the presentation of Christian DIOR's collection (after the couturier's death on October 24, 1957), prepared by Yves SAINT-LAURENT; it was Pierre BERGÉ who wrote (and signed "Bernard Buffet") the text that appeared in Arts on February 5, 1958.
