    Le groupe de l’Atelier 17

    Galerie Pierre, Paris, France · until May 25, 1935

    Notes and sources

    Hayter's preface for this exhibition, signed "H.," was located in Swedish translation in the journal Konstrevy (1935) by James Chadwick. It names 22 exhibiting artists and describes the plaster-relief method alongside paper prints.

    About the exhibiting artists

    The preface, signed "H." (Hayter), lists 22 exhibitors and was published in Swedish in Konstrevy (1935). A review in L'Intransigeant (May 26, 1935) singles out Brignoni, Vieillard, Vulliamy and Catherine Yarrow and names Dalí and Ernst as the group's two influences. Konstrevy gives Buckland Wright's first name as "Frank"; linked here to John Buckland-Wright.

    About the exhibiting artists

    The catalogue lists Marcel Duchamp's Les deux Frères (no. 20) in the Paris 1927–1939 section, but there is as yet no evidence that Duchamp participated in Atelier 17 during the prewar period.
