One of Salvador Dalí’s unpublished notebooks is up for auction at Sotheby’s in Paris. Part of a fantastic array of Dada and Surrealist items for sale by the Bibliothèque R. & B. L. From CNN:
Among what has been deciphered is a page of writing devoted to “cadavres exquis”, the address of filmmaker and friend of Surrealists Rene Clair and the name of Corti, a depository of the Surrealists’ publications.
The book, currently owned by Bibliotheque R. & B. L., is believed to date from 1930-1935 and Sotheby’s estimates it will sell for between $45,000-$56,000 (€40,000-50,000) in an auction in partnership with Binoche and Giquello.
