In the organizer's words:

The complete (new) translation of the legendary magazine La Révolution Surréaliste is now available. Its twelve issues, published from 1924 to 1929, are a key document of French and international Surrealism. They show the beginnings, contradictions and further developments of this early chaotic phase of the movement. The magazine contains famous surveys, manifestos and other texts as well as many illustrations. A complete German-language edition, including the conceptually important illustrations, did not exist until now.

After 100 years, it is time for a revision and re-reading. Even today, the reception of Surrealism in Germany - right up to current exhibitions - remains strongly related to the visual arts. Whereas in France, surrealism is and was also perceived as a literary movement.

With Milena Adam, Andreas Dimmler, Benjamin Dittmann-Bieber, Christian Driesen, Unda Hörner and Nora Sdun.
Alexander Gumz will moderate.
There will be a pop-up exhibition for the eyes and (un)realistic music by Louis d'Heudières for the ears.
