The collage novel “La Femme 100 têtes”
In 1929 appeared the graphic novel La Femme 100 têtes, some 150 drawings with the artist’s text and an address to the reader by André Breton. One of its characters was Loplop, the chief of the birds, who appeared in Ernst’s work again and again.

A first solo show in New York
In 1931 Julien Levy’s gallery in New York held Ernst’s first solo show there; Levy bought some of the collages exhibited in Paris the same year at Galerie Pierre.
