Max Ernst and Alchemy: A Magician in Search of Myth Warlick M. E.Paperback
Surrealist artist Max Ernst defined collage as the alchemy of the visual image. Taking a wholly different perspective on Ernst and alchemy, however, M. E. Students of his work have often dismissed this comment as simply a metaphor for the transformative power of using found images in a new context.
Looking at both his art (many of the works she discusses are reproduced in the book) and his writings, she reveals how thoroughly alchemical philosophy and symbolism pervade his early Warlick persuasively demonstrates that the artist had a profound and abiding interest in alchemical philosophy and often used alchemical symbolism in works created throughout his career.A revival of interest in alchemy swept the artistic, psychoanalytic, historical, and scientific circles of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and Warlick sets Ernst's work squarely within this movement.
