AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Charming illustrated copy with 104 heliographic photographs of this editorial reissue of an avant-garde magazine originally associated with the Surrealist movement and the modernist artistic currents of the 20th century, gathering contributions from artists, writers and thinkers around the links between art, myth, the unconscious and creation -

The work sits in the continuity of an emblematic publication born in the 1930s, known for blending the visual arts, literature, psychoanalysis and aesthetic reflection in a luxurious and experimental editorial form -

This 1981 edition testifies to a renewed interest in the heritage of Surrealism and in the archives of the avant-garde, highlighting the rich iconography and intellectual content of the original texts and images -

The content explores recurring themes such as the myth of the Minotaur, a central figure of Western imagination associated with the labyrinth, human duality and primal forces. It also presents reflections on dream, desire, symbolic violence and the hidden structures of the psyche, in dialogue with the psychoanalytic theories of the early century -
