Le surréalisme

Sobre el libro Le surréalisme de publicado por Pompidou al 2024:

From Septembre 4th, 2024 to January 13th, 2025, the Centre Pompidou is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of Surrealism. With its extraordinary longevity of more than four decades, its international spread, surrealism holds a singular place in the history of modern art. From the publication of Manifest of Surrealism in 1924, up to its final manifestations in the 1960s, the movement was never reduced to an aesthetic or formalism. The different chapters of the "Surrealism" exhibition attest to the ambition of surrealists to turn life into poetry. With a preference for dreams and wonder than cartesianism, for the mysteries of the night and the forest than technical progress, for erotism than materialism, for alchemy than capitalism, for the queendom of Mothers and the myth of Melusine than the sensible world, for harmony within the cosmos than spatial conquest, surrealism appears today with a prophetic lucidity. À travers ses différentes thématiques, l´album offre un condensé de l´exposition richement illustré. Through its different themes, the album offers a beautifully illlustrated summary of the exhibition. Bilingual French-English book
