    Summary note
    Born in Volos, Greece, and educated in Nietzsche's 'philosophical' Munich, Giorgio de Chicoro then moved to Paris where his art influenced the emerging Surrealist generation. He was first noticed by Pablo Picasso and Guillaume Apollinaire, when he exhibited in 1913. This volume examines his work.
