MARCEL JEAN. 1985.
£20.00
Toronto: Fine Arts Corp, 1985
21 x 15cm, 28pp. Card covers. Exhibition catalogue for a late retrospective of one of the lesser known surrealists who only came to attention during the 1936 surrealist exhibition in London organised by ELT Mesens. Jean can be seen in many of the surviving photographs of that event as part of the surrounding group clearly hanging onto Breton’s every word – two of the photographs are reproduced herein along with 30 (mostly watercolour) works in full process colour – most of which one has to admit are very derivative of Ernst, Man Ray and Dali. Minor marks on covers otherwise very good.
