Beschreibung

Wraps, nice inscribed by Crevel to Jean and Valentine Hugo, a wonderful association copy. A very good copy with ¼" chip at head of spine. Crevel was an important surrealist who,beginning in the late 1920s, was a most active participant who tried to unite surrealist and communist ideas. The occasion of a writers conference in 1935 led to a fatal split between the surrealists and communists, rather than the union that Crevel anticipated. This played a significant role in hs suicide that very month. Valentine Gross was studying painting in Paris when she met and married the artist Jean Hugo, the great-grandson of Victor Hugo. In the 1930s she became a major participant in surrealist activities and exhibitions. Her finely wrought art technique was striking and quite popular. In the post-war period, she concentrated on design work for choreography, although she continued to paint. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 204 pp. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 28483
