Photographe (French Edition)

Claude Cahun represents one of the more bizarre visions to emerge from Paris of the 1930s-a more violent surrealism than his counterparts'. At the height of European world dominance, his work obsessively explores orientalism, primarily through self-portraits. Often displaying an eerie androgeny, he will appear as an Indian God, or a rag doll, or a sailor. An intriguing collection of images.
