About This Item

Scarce booklet accompanying what appears to be the first solo exhibit of works by Lacina, following just one year after the first legal exhibition of the Skupina Ra group, an important Czech post-war surrealist group which sharply distinguished itself from pre-war Czech surrealism. Accompanied by short essays by three founding members of the Skupina Ra, as well as the noted modernist poet František Halas. With fourteen reproductions of Lacina's surrealist paintings, a list of previous exhibitions, and a bibliography of publications with his participation as an illustrator. Also included is a French-language resume.

As of January 2024, KVK, OCLC show four copies in North America.
