The Birth of Belgian Surrealism: Excerpts from Correspondance (1924-25)/Commentary
2013
Overview
Correspondance was a Belgian surrealist magazine, from the earliest years of the movement, that can be read as a challenge to the notions of surrealism promoted in Andre Breton's Manifesto of Surrealism of 1924. Though short-lived and low-profile, Correspondance was a subtly influential intervention in twentieth-century culture. Here, Baetens and Kasper provide a representative sample of the stylistic, rhetorical, and ideological tone of Correspondance, while suggesting as well, although many of its allusions are still open to rediscovery and interpretation, the way the periodical was intimately networked with the wider modernist scene of the mid-1920s.
