Numero di questa rivista d’arte parigina fondata nel 1904 dedicato ad Henri Simmen con sue xilografie nel testo e nelle tavole iniziali fuori testo. “The Parisian revue, Les Tendances Nouselles, emerged in May of 1904 as part of an ambitious enterprise, consisting not only of a periodical, but of a gallery, an exhibition society, and an internacional artists’ cooperative with explicity utopian goals. This effort actually put into practice many of the characteristic ideals of Symbolism, which still held sway in the Paris art world during the first decade of this century and which were passed on to the young Expressionists. Despite the broad variety of individual viewpoints published by the magazine, its Symbolist profile remained clear – in its social aspirations for art, its co-operative nature, its belief in the metaphysical unity of the various arts, its espousal of parallels between art and science, and its not infrequent forays into the mystic. Even the wide range of authors with different beliefs stems from a Symbolist appreciation for sincere individuality. Indeed, Les Tendances Nouvelles may be a more concrete and representative embodiment of this period ideology than any other known document of the time” (Twentieth-century Literary Criticism, vol. 92, 2000, p. 42).
