The archives of Victor Brauner (1903-1966) are kept at the Musée national d'art moderne.

This book presents a selection of texts by the artist and correspondence with his friends, painters, writers and dealers (René Char, Gherasim Luca, Roberto Matta, Pablo Picasso, Yves Tanguy, Peggy Guggenheim, Julien Levy, etc.), from 1938, when the painter from Romania settled permanently in France, to 1948, the date of his exclusion from Surrealism by André Breton. These manuscripts and letters are published for the first time. They shed new light on a period marked by the war. Brauner, a surrealist, a Jew and a Romanian, developed a new poetic and pictorial language in clandestinity, which profoundly renewed surrealism.
