 This delightful book opens up for everyone the unorthodox creative methods of the Surrealist school of artists and poets that flourished in Europe in the early 1900s. Outrageous language games, alternative card games, "Dream Lotto," and automatic techniques for making poems, stories, collages, and photomontages are accompanied by the art of Max Ernst, Hans Arp, and Tristan Tzara.   less

I have only played a few of these so far; again, one of the things which speaks in Surrealismâ€™s favour was the value it placed on games, and the fun that the Surrealists had playing them. I do not keep this in my bookshelves, but on the living room table. Anyone is invited to mark it, because such a book must be played, like an instrument, by everyone.
