"La surréalisme sera ce qu'il n'est plus. A Paris, le 1er juillet 1947." |
| Summary |
"After a few mimeographed accounts and a Manifesto which appears in the Breton archives, the revolutionary Surrealists launch on July 1st, 1947 the leaflet "The cause is heard", which responds to Breton's leaflet entitled "Inaugural rupture". The poet affirmed the freedom of art vis-à-vis any partisan politics, and the vocation of surrealism to discover a "new myth"; the leaflet of his opponents particularly attacks this interest in myth and magic, which is expressed in the exhibition Surrealism in 1947. Inaugurated on July 7, the exhibition is a success, but attacks continue during the summer, until Roger Vailland takes over in the fall with Surrealism against the revolution.
