Bimonthly publication of Éditions Arcanes of Paris, Medium represents the final phase of the historical surrealist movement, with contributions from the principal exponents of the group. Copy of the ordinary edition in illustrated wrappers, in generally good condition. Essential document for the study of postwar surrealism and its international diffusion toward Scandinavia.
