BELLMER (Hans).
L.A.S. to Jean COCTEAU. Berlin, 20 April 1954, 1 p. in-8. Bellmer received the text on the portraits. I think I have become pale with joy - to see you situate the drama, the necessary, the whole, in a shortcut which, I tell myself, may only be due to a friendly desire to know. He has started the translation that he will give to the Springer Gallery to begin the composition of the catalog. By chance, Unica Zürn arrived at my home at about the same time as your letter. She asks me to convey to you the heartfelt greetings of someone who has seen "The Blood of a Poet". Bellmer has found the portrait of Éluard. I will put it, if you allow it, in your text, in the enumeration: Joe Bousquet, Max Ernst, etc. Cocteau's text will be reproduced on the invitation card for the exhibition of portraits at the Librairie Jean-Jacques Pauvert which took place from May to June 1955 in Paris. A copy of this rare card (19,5 x 9,5 cm) is attached, which was obviously composed by Bellmer.
