For artists and writers of the Surrealist movement, the book was the perfect medium: a vehicle for subversive experimentation and revolutionary ideas. Working collaboratively to unlock the unconscious, they transformed the bound volume into a provocative new art form. 
 
The Surrealist Book: Tomorrow Lives in Mirrors presents the Helen and Sam Zell Collection of artists’ books at The Museum of Modern Art, featuring the work of Surrealism’s most fascinating figures, including André Breton, Claude Cahun, Salvador Dalí, Paul Éluard, Georges Hugnet, Toyen, and Unica Zürn. Lavishly illustrated, this publication showcases a trove of exquisite objects—including sumptuous enhanced editions, singular sketchbooks, and unique sculptural bindings—each offering a portal to the unexpected, the irrational, and the marvelous. 272 pages, 325 illustrations. 
 
Edited by Jodi Hauptman and Starr Figura, with contributions by Barbora Bartunkova, Lee Ann Daffner, Leah Dickerman, Hal Foster, Samantha Friedman, Johanna Gosse, Kolleen Ku, Alyce Mahon, Sean O'Hanlan, Caitlin Richeson, Abigail Susik, Hannah Freed Thall, Whitney Trettien, Anne Umland, Annie Wilker with Sonya Barron.
