Love, Sex, Art: It's All in the Mind

This book gives you an idea of how incestuous the Surrealist movement was. It gives an insight into what went on in the artistic circles of the era. It is thoughtful and extraordinarily interesting. The various authors and their different viewpoints help to show the complexity of the movement and the artists without being too much in awe of artists like Man Ray or Hans Bellmer. It is also a beautiful book with a pretty pink and gold embossed cover (under the dust jacket). Full of stunning reproductions and personal photographs. Excellent read and aesthically pleasing.

Surrealism Exposed

I find this book to be historically acurate, informative, and most comprehensive. In my humble opinion, a great study of one of the most thought provoking, imaginative, and subjective styles of art of all of our existence.
