|  A Surrealist BookshelfFounding Surrealist André Breton defined Surrealism as “pure psychic automatism, by which an attempt is made to express, either verbally, in writing or in any other manner, the true functioning of thought. The dictation of thought, in the absence of all control by reason, excluding any aesthetic or moral preoccupation.” To these supra-rational ends, the Surrealist artists and poets pioneered and developed new techniques that ramified across all of the arts, from poetry to painting to cinema. This library collects some of the most essential texts and surveys on the movement. | TITLE ALPHABETICAL INDEX Text by Masayo Nonaka.TURNERISBN: 9788475069913

Lineages of the eerie, the strange and the fantastical: from Blake, Goya and Redon to Borremans, Yuskavage and Marshall
Endless Enigma: Eight Centuries of Fantastic Art explores the ways in which artists have sought to explain their world in terms of an alternate reality, drawn from imagination, the subconscious, poetry, nature, myth and religion.
Endless Enigma takes as its point of departure Alfred H. Barr Jr.’s legendary 1936 exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, Fantastic Art, Dada, Surrealism, which not only introduced these movements to the American public, but also placed them in a historical and cultural context . . . .go to book page >> |  | STATUS: Forthcoming | 7/23/2019 This title is not yet published in the U.S. To pre-order or receive notice when the book is available, please email orders @ artbook.com | DAVID ZWIRNER BOOKSHbk, 9 x 11 in. / 248 pgs / 116 color. | 7/23/2019 | Awaiting stock

During the hour-long lecture, he illustrated, with the aid of slides, the evolution of his work, and revealed the techniques that had allowed him to create images characterized by what he called a disturbing poetic effect.”
Following the thread laid out by Magritte in that lecture, this catalog retraces the artist’s career . . . .go to book page >> |  | Free Shipping UPS GROUND IN THE CONTINENTAL U.S.
