From Series 3.1: Manuscripts of Writings by Walter Pach, 1912-1948, undated
Series 3: Writings, 1899-ca. 1953, undated
This series includes handwritten and edited versions of published and unpublished manuscripts. Many are written on the backs of pages containing pencil figure studies by Pach, showing his dual concerns as an artist and writer. Lecture notes from classes he taught at the University of California at Berkeley and the University of Mexico, several college notebooks, and the text of a speech delivered in 1941 at the Society of Independent Artists dinner honoring John Sloan are included, along with memorandums, fragments of writings, and a card index noting works of art. Among the writings of other authors are poems, chapters of books, articles, and prose by Apollinaire, Baudelaire, Faure, Le Roy, Mallarmé, Rouault, Villon, and others.
The series is arranged as four subseries.
