This landmark volume examines the life and work of the extraordinary Swiss Surrealist Meret Oppenheim. Although she became famous at the age of 23 for her fur-covered teacup, she subsequently suffered years of critical neglect, and her subversive work has only recently begun to receive the acclaim it deserves. This beautiful catalogue covers the full range of her art, embracing sculpture, painting, drawing, collage, assemblage, photography, fashion and jewelry design, and a selection of Oppenheim's poems. Now available to the trade in a paperback edition.

Famous at the age of 23 for her fur-covered teacup, Meret Oppenheim numbered Man Ray, Alberto Giacometti, Max Ernst and Andre Breton among her friends and admirers. In subsequent years she suffered from critical neglect, and her subversive work has only recently begun to receive the acclaim it deserves. Published to accompany her first US retrospective, this study examines the life and work of this extraordinary Swiss Surrealist. It embraces sculpture, paintings, drawing, collage, assemblage, photography, fashion and jewelry design, and a selection of Oppenheim's poems.
