AGIP - Reportages photographiques 17 January 1938 | 13 x 17.5 cm | one photograph
Original photograph, contemporary silver halide print, taken at the International Surrealist Exhibition in Paris in 1938. «AGIP - Reportages photographiques» «AGIP - Photographic Reports» stamp on the verso.
The image depicts a mannequin dressed by the artist Wolfgang Paalen, presented in the «surrealist street» of the exhibition, amongst the 15 other «being-objects» decorated by Marcel Duchamp, Seligmann, Max Ernst, Joan Miró,
Augustín Espinoza, Sonia Mossé, Yves Tanguy, Salvador Dalí, Maurice Henry, Man Ray, Oscar Domínguez, Léo Malet and Marcel Jean.
Stencilled inset glued on the back of the picture: «The private viewing of the exhibition of the «surrealists» takes place tonight, rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. The artists present the mannequins that they have dressed as they see fit. The art of fashion, for them, does not seem as well developed as the imagination
and fantasy; this is how a surrealist conceives someone elegant: a hat comprising a veil with a bat on top; a dress made of gathered mushrooms. Photo AGIP 17 January 1938.»
Some small water stains, not touching the recto, on the verso of the picture.
The photographic agency the Rue des Archives, owner of AGIP agency collection, has not taken any other prints of this photograph.
