Known mainly as a critic and organizer of events on the Czech art scene of the 1920s, Karel Teige was also a leading figure of the avant-garde group Devetsil and a member of the Prague Surrealists. Between 1934 and his premature death in 1951, he privately produced nearly 400 collages, many of which are reproduced here as a testament to their vital role in the history of European Surrealism.
