“Undoubtedly the fines collection of the work of the school of Paris is in the Musee d'Art Moderne and its curator Bernard Dorival has chosen the many illustrations which represent the work of this school, and tells its history and that of its members. - The School was the basis of no less than three separate artistic movements - Cubism, Fauvism and Surrealism, each of which was radical, scandalised the world and then became both respectable and very expensive.”
