Description
A week of surreal wonder awaits in this enigmatic collection of collages by Max Ernst. First published in 1934, "Une Semaine De Bont" is a series of seven parts, each exploring one of the seven deadly elements, and has never been reprinted before this edition.
Ernst's unique blend of Dada and surrealist influences brings to life bizarre and darkly humorous scenes, from women sprouting giant wings to serpents appearing in the drawing-room. The book is a major source for anyone interested in the surrealists and their work, in collage, visual illusion, dream visions, and the interpretations of dreams.
Containing adult material, this edition features the original epigraphs in both French and English, making it a valuable treat for collectors and scholars alike. A must-have for those seeking to explore the surrealist movement and its fascinating world of art and imagination.
