From Marseille to New York 1940-1945, French/English Book, by Bernard Noel, 1985
About the Item
Marseille - New York. 1940-1945, une liaison surrealiste (Marseille - New York. 1940-1945, a surrealistic link), French/English book by Bernard Noel, 1985.
Through archival photographs and artwork, this book tells the dual story of Marseille, France, and New York during the years of World War II.
Although primarily visual, the book uses storytelling to examine the relationships between cities and people.
This book tells the now-famous tale of French artists, poets, and painters (many of them Jewish) who fled Paris for Marseille following France's 1940 surrender. Departing from Marseille, they were smuggled overseas through the efforts of Varian Fry and the Emergency Rescues Committees.
This is how André Breton and his entourage arrived in New York in 1941 and launched Surrealism in America.
Excellent documentation of that story, with text both in French and English and superb illustrations.
This is a beautiful coffee table art book.
