By (artist) Jacques Halpern

Description

"A young painter [...] whom I haven't known for long, but whom I hold to be exceptionally inspired". It was in these terms that Breton, in an "update" in Arcane 17, introduced J.H., who during the transitional period of the years from 45-50 was one of the most enthusiastic adherents of "automatism". Édouard Jaguer (Adam Biro, René Passeron (sous la direction de), Dictionnaire général du surréalisme et de ses environs, Fribourg, Office du Livre, 1982, p. 199).
