Synopsis

Special facsimile copy of the typeset version of the Surrealist photo book The Road is Wider than Long by Roland Penrose.

Written as a Surrealist love poem, the inspiration for the book is drawn from a journey that Roland Penrose made together with Lee Miller through the Balkans in 1938. This book is made as a replica of the first copy that Roland printed in 1939 using different fonts and then embellished with imaginative colour illustrations for Lee Miller.

À propos de l'auteur

Sir Roland Penrose is best known as a Surrealist artist and for his biography of his friend Picasso, 'Picasso : his life and work' (1958), followed by books on Joan Miró (1970), Man Ray (1975), Antoni TÃ pies (1978), and his autobiography 'Scrap Book, 1900 – 1981′(1981). He organised the highly acclaimed Picasso retrospective for the Tate Gallery in 1960, followed by other key exhibitions at the Tate and major galleries. He co-founded the ICA (Institute of Contemporary Art) in 1947 but returned to painting in the last decade of his life, with exhibitions of his collages in London, Paris and Brighton.
