Duchamp, Marcel
LE SURREALISME EN 1947.
Paris: Pierre a Feu, Maeght Editeur, 1947
23 x 22cm, 140pp. Original photographic wrappers with a photographic plate by Remy Duval on front cover, reproducing Duchamp's faux "breast". Scarce exhibition catalogue from the immediate post war era before Breton forgot he was a dialectical materialist and started to believe in the arcane. Illustrated throughout by the exhibiting artists, texts by Breton, Peret, Brauner, Henry Miller, Ferry, Bataille, Arp, Bousquet, Bellmer and others. The paper here, as almost always, is browned. The Duchamp-designed photographic cover varies here from the photograph used in the various du tete copies and should really be regarded as a variant on his work noted in the catalogue raisonne.
