Double programme d'invitation à un concert du Groupe des Six et à la deuxième exposition de la jeune peinture française, Cézanne - Renoir du 17 juin au 4 juillet 1920, Galerie Manzi-Joyant et Cie

Paris 1920, 11,5x14,7cm, broché.

Rare first edition of the double invitation programme to a "Groupe des Six" concert on June 19, 1920, and to the second "Jeune Peinture française" exhibition from June 17 to July 4, 1920 at the Galerie Manzi-Joyant et Cie.
This document combines a musical event (with works by Francis Poulenc, Louis Durey, Arnold Schoenberg, Georges Auric, Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud and Germaine Tailleferre) with a paintings exhibition by Paul Cézanne, Auguste Renoir, Pierre Bonnard, Henri Matisse, Félix Vallotton, Paul Sérusier and Paul Signac, among others, as well as sculptures by Aristide Maillol and Antoine Bourdelle. 
The program announces the avant-garde concert of the "Groupe des Six" formed the same year by poet Jean Cocteau. It was part of a long series of memorable performances organized since 1917 by the young pianist-composers of the "Groupe des Six", where music was played and poems declaimed (this program also mentions the reading of Guillaume Apollinaire's Bestiaire and four poems by Paul Claudel). 
On the reverse is an invitation for four people to the second exhibition of the "Jeune Peinture Française" group presided by Pierre Bonnard and Auguste Renoir.
