"Penelope Rosemont has given us, better than anyone else in the English language, a marvelous, meticulous exploration of thesurrealistexperience, in all its infinite variety."-Gerome Kamrowski,American Surrealist Painter
One of the hallmarks of Surrealism isthe encounter, often by chance, with a key person, place, or object through a trajectory no one could have predicted. Penelope Rosemont draws on a lifetime of such experiences in her collection of essays,Surrealism: Inside the Magnetic Fields. From her youthful forays as a radical student in Chicago to her pivotal meeting with André Breton and the Surrealist Movement in Paris, Rosemont-one of the movement's leading exponents in the United States-documents her unending search for the Marvelous.
Surrealismfinds her rubbing shoulders with some of the movement's most important visual artists, such as Man Ray, Leonora Carrington, Mimi Parent, and Toyen; discussing politics and spectacle with Guy Debord; and crossing paths with poet Ted Joans and outsider artist Lee Godie. The book also includes scholarly investigations into American radicals like George Francis Train and Mary MacLane, the myth of the Golden Goose, and Dada precursor Emmy Hennings.
Praise forSurrealism:
"Rosemont is not delivering dry abstractions, as so many academic 'specialists,' but telling us about warm and exciting human encounters, illuminated by the subversive spirit of Permanent Enchantment."-Michael Löwy, author ofEcosocialism
"This compelling and well-drawn book lets us see the adventures, inspirations, and relationships that have shaped Penelope Rosemont's art and rebellion."-David Roediger, author ofClass, Race, and Marxism
"The broad sampling of essays included here offer a compelling entry point for curious readers and an essential compendium for surrealist practitioners."-Abigail Susik, professor of art history, Willamette University
"Rosemont's welcome memoir has a double virtue, as testament to the enduring radiance of Surrealism, and as a memento to the Sixties, revealing a sweetly beating wonderment at the heart of that absurdly maligned decade."-Jed Rasula, author ofDestruction Was My Beatrice: Dada and the Unmaking of the Twentieth Century
"Artist, historian, and social activist, Rosemont writes from the inside out. Like a rare, hybrid flower growing out of the earth, she complicates, expands, and opens the strange and beautiful meadow where Surrealism continues to live and thrive."-Sabrina Orah Mark, author ofWild Milk
"In this wide-ranging collection of essays, Penelope Rosemont, long a keeper of surrealism's revolutionary flame, shows how a penetrating look into the past can liberate the future."-Andrew Joron, author ofThe Absolute Letter
"Rosemont recreates the feverish antics and immediate reception her close-knit, sleep-deprived, beat-attired squad find in the established, moray-breaking Parisian and international surrealists. Revolution is here, between the covers."-Gillian Conoley, author ofA Little More Red Sun on the Human: New and Selected Poemsand translator ofThousand Times Broken: Three Booksby Henri Michaux
