Wrongrong Auto-Prophet

New York: Pat Hearn Gallery, 1987. Offset on newsprint. Folded folio one sheet. In very good condition despite being creased from having been folded into thirds. Item #4060

Jimmy De Sana’s Wrongrong drew inspiration and design from the infamous publication Un Cadavre, a tract written by Surrealist dissidents like Bataille and Desnos against the increasing authoritarianism of Andre Breton. Rather than overtly denouncing anyone, here, however, De Sana presents several pages of photographs and accompanying poetry, published on the occasion of a show at the Pat Hearn Gallery in 1987.

Price: $350.00
