Title: Wolfgang Paalen
Description: "Critic and artist Wolfgang Paalen was a highly influential figure in the culture of the 20th-century Modernist movements. His work significantly informed Abstract Expressionism and his periodical DYN, published from 1942-1944, became a seminal work for painters of that time.".

"This is the first book-length work to demonstrate the importance of Paalen's work in philosophical, scientific, anthropological, political, and cultural contexts. Providing an examination of Paalen himself, this book also studies the relationships between Modernist art movements of Europe and America, including Expressionism, Cubism, and Surrealism, and the cultural, social, and political histories in which they developed."--BOOK JACKET.
