Offset lithograph on card; colour collage image to front, exhibition details and checklist of 37 works inside
1–15 June, c.1960s

Original folding exhibition invitation for Madeleine Alain Brieux’s Collages at Galerie du Passeur, Paris. The front image is the strength of the piece: surrealist cut-and-paste imagery combining Old Master florals, anatomical fragments, pink-red hands, acrobatic figures, classical architecture, and a central masked face — dense, psychologically charged, and visually excessive in the best sense.

Galerie du Passeur operated at 90 rue du Bac, Paris, with documented exhibitions in the early-to-mid 1960s. The interior carries a full checklist of 37 works with titles including Nature morte, Pyramide intérieure, Les séquences du Don Juan, La malémancy de Vénus, and Oiseaux noirs dans le soleil levant.

A compact Paris gallery object with strong graphic presence and a complete exhibition record inside.

Condition: Good vintage condition. Light toning, handling marks, fold wear, minor creasing, and softened corners consistent with period gallery ephemera.

Shipping and handling included.
