About

Why this artist matters now

Édouard Jaguer was a French poet, critic, and curator central to the postwar Surrealist movement in Paris. He co-founded the journal Phases in 1954, which became a key platform for experimental poetry and visual art across Europe and beyond. Jaguer's critical writings shaped discourse around abstraction and the lyrical avant-garde, while his curatorial practice brought together artists working across photography, painting, and text-based work. His engagement with Surrealism extended beyond dogma, emphasizing the synthesis of poetry and visual form.
