It is the largest publisher in English of books on Surrealism and has an extensive list relating to Dada, Surrealism, Expressionism, the Oulipo, the Collège de ‘Pataphysique, Vienna Actionists among others." [wikipedia]

From the Publisher: "The Printed Head (a literal translation of “tirage de tête”) was conceived as a series of shorter works to which our more enthusiastic readers subscribed in advance. At the end of each series they received an extra volume and a slipcase to contain the set of publications."
