Since the rediscovery of British Surrealism at the Children of
Alice exhibition at Marcel Fleiss's Galerie 1900-2000 in Paris in
1982, there has been a major revival of interest in Surrealism
outside France. Surrealism in Britain is the first comprehensive
study of the British Surrealist movement and its achievements.
Lavishly illustrated, the book provides a year-by-year narrative of
the development of Surrealism among artists, writers, critics and
theorists in Britain, from the 1936 International Surrealist
Exhibition in London right through to the present day. Michel Remy
has conducted personal interviews with many of the artists involved
and the book includes an examination of the work of, among others,
Paul Nash, Henry Moore, Eileen Agar, Len Lye, Humphrey Jennings,
David Gascoyne, Grace Pailthorpe and Reuben Mednikoff, Roland
Penrose, F. E. McWilliam, Conroy Maddox, Emmy Bridgwater, Edith
Rimmington, Desmond Morris, Lee Miller, Julian Trevelyan and John
Tunnard. Poetry, prose, painting, sculpture, photography and
artists' texts all have their place in this fascinating and
attractive book.
