Piet Mondrian played a major role in the development of abstract art during the first half of the 20th century. As the moving spirit of De Stijl, the most austere of all abstractionist movements, Mondrian developed and carried out his idea of art almost in isolation ; he owed little to any other artist or school of painting. The pure geometrical works of his mature style, often composed entirely of squares of vivid reds and yellows carefully balanced with areas of white and intersected by vertical or horizontal lines, are the direct expression of his belief in an art freed from subjectivity—an art that was the expression of a universal unchangeable truth.

In the Paris art world of the 1920s, Georges Bataille and his journal DOCUMENTS represented a dissident branch of surrealism. Bataille--poet, philosopher, writer, and self-styled "enemy within" surrealism--used DOCUMENTS to put art into violent confrontation with popular culture, ethnography, film, and archaeology. Undercover Surrealism, taking the visual richness of DOCUMENTS as its starting point, recovers the explosive and vital intellectual context of works by Picasso, Dalí, Miró, Giacometti, and others in 1920s Paris. Featuring 180 color images and translations of original texts from DOCUMENTS accompanied by essays and shorter descriptive texts, Undercover Surrealism recreates and recontextualizes Bataille's still unsettling approach to culture. Putting Picasso's Three Dancers back into its original context of sex, sacrifice, and violence, for example, then juxtaposing it with images of gang wars, tribal masks, voodoo ritual, Hollywood musicals, and jazz, makes the urgency and excitement of Bataille's radical ideas startlingly vivid to a twenty-first-century reader.
