21 x 17.5cm, 104pp plus original wrappers and dust jacket. 36 b/w plates illustrating the entire range of the 36 artists displayed in this state sponsored show - the first of its kind in the UK. There is an interesting historical essay in English by Kamil Novotny - and many of the most important artists from the constuctivist and surrealist schools are included in the show: Sima, Capek (J), Styrsky, Tichy, Dvorak amongst others (but no Toyen interestingly). 148 works in the exhibition are listed. Slight tears to dj but otherwise very good.

(Paris); Editions de la Connaissance 1948

21 x 16.5cm, 132pp plus original wrappers. 64 b/w and 1 full colour plate illustrating the 24 artists included. Essay by Madelaine Collard. The comparison with a similar contemporaneous English show is interesting - no Styrsky or Toyen and only a few surrealists are noted (the overwhelming comparison is with the impressionists and fauves) but J. Capek, Sima, Janousek, Tichy and others are included. The binding is loose causing the colour plate to come loose and the printed wrappers are marked with ink on one edge.
