Description - Oppenheim, Meret: Beyong the Teacup by Burckhardt

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.
