Seghers reissues a 1948 collaboration between Max Ernst and Paul Éluard
« A l'intérieur de la vue », the collage-and-poetry book the artist and the poet made together, returns in a facsimile edition that reproduces the original exactly, according to Le Monde.
Éditions Seghers has republished « A l'intérieur de la vue », a 1948 book pairing collages by Max Ernst with texts by Paul Éluard, in a facsimile edition that reproduces the original identically, Le Monde reports.
According to the newspaper, the book stages a hybridization of image and word, with Ernst's collages and Éluard's writing feeding into one another across its pages — a visual and literary collaboration between two major figures of the Surrealist orbit.
Le Monde offers no further detail on the reissue's format, print run or price. For readers who keep a home library, the news is essentially this: a scarce 1948 object of collage and poetry is again available, unaltered from its first edition.
