EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the International Surrealist exhibition held at the New Burlington Galleries in London during 1936, Andre Breton, the enigmatic leader of the Surrealist movement, is seen in the company of his wife, Jacqueline Lamba, as well as fellow Surrealist artists Paul Nash and Leonor Fini. The exhibition, which marked a significant moment in the cultural history of the 1930s, showcased an array of avant-garde artworks that defied conventional logic and challenged the boundaries of the human imagination. Breton, dressed in a smart suit and holding a cigarette, exudes an air of quiet intensity, while his wife, with her striking features and androgynous appearance, adds an element of mystery to the scene. Paul Nash, a British painter known for his landscapes and dreamlike imagery, stands to the left, deep in conversation with an unseen interlocutor. Leonor Fini, an Argentine-born artist, is depicted in a flowing white dress, her expressive face conveying a sense of otherworldly allure. The photograph also features two notable works of art from the exhibition. In the background, Roland Penrose's sculpture "Captain Cook's Last Voyage" can be seen, its abstract forms and surrealist imagery reflecting the movement's rejection of rational thought. To the right, Humphrey Jennings' painting of Lord Kitchener, a prominent British military figure, adds an unexpected juxtaposition to the surrealist surroundings, further emphasizing the subversive nature of the exhibition. This photograph captures a moment in time when the Surrealist movement, with its emphasis on the irrational and the dreamlike, was at the forefront of the artistic and cultural landscape. The International Surrealist exhibition at the New Burlington Galleries represented a bold and daring departure from the norm, and this image serves as a testament to the enduring influence of the Surrealist movement on the 20th century.
