Max Ernst: Illustrated Books
The mysterious, species-bending creatures invented by German surrealist Max Ernst (1891-1976) during the 1920s and 1930s will be highlighted in the focus exhibition Max Ernst: Illustrated Books. Drawn from the Gallery's rare book collection, the nineteen works include pages from Ernst's collage novels La femme 100 têtes (1929), Rêve d'une petite fille qui voulut entrer au Carmel (1930), and Une semaine de bonté (1934).
