In Surreal Lives, Ruth Brandon follows the lives and interactions of such firecracker minds as the movement's didactic \"Pope\", Andre Breton and the ambitious and manic Salvador Dali, as well as Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, Tristan Tzara, Man Ray, Max Ernst, and filmmaker Luis Bunuel. It charts the shifting allegiances, such muses and patrons as Gala Dali and Peggy Guggenheim. Ruth Brandon spins the many stories of Surrealism with wit, energy, and insight, bringing sharp analysis to an eccentric cast of characters whose struggles and achievements came to mirror and define the way the world changed between the wars.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Grove Pr","offers":[{"title":"Surreal Lives: The Surrealists 1917-1945 | Ruth Brandon | Hardcover | 9780802116536 | Used: Very Good | Art History \u0026 Theory 1589167","offer_id":48742242287768,"sku":"1589167","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/41K2HFCRXTL.jpg?v=1773850365","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/surreal-lives-the-surrealists-1917-1945","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
