His Paris circle: Artaud, Giacometti, Miró, Derain
Back in Paris, Balthus joins the circle of the Surrealists; his work is admired early on by André Breton and Pablo Picasso. His friends include the writers Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Henri Michaux, Michel Leiris and René Char, the photographer Man Ray, the playwright Antonin Artaud, and the painters André Derain, Joan Miró and Alberto Giacometti, one of his most faithful friends.
