Surrealism And The Art Of Crime

Attribution
Jonathan P. Eburne
Publication Details
Book, Cornell University Press, 2008
Description
In a book strikingly illustrated with surrealist artworks and their sometimes gruesome source material, Eburne addresses key individual works by both better-known surrealist writers and artists (including Andr Breton, Louis Aragon, Aim Csaire, Jacques Lacan, Georges Bataille, Max Ernst, and Salvador Dal) and lesser-known figures (such as Ren Crevel, Simone Breton, Leonora Carrington, Benjamin Pret, and Jules Monnerot). For Eburne “the art of crime” denotes an array of cultural production including sensationalist journalism, detective mysteries, police blotters, crime scene photos, and documents of medical and legal opinion as well as the roman noir, in particular the first crime novel of the American Chester Himes.
