Source Magazine: Bate's interweaving of semiotics, psychoanalysis and photographic conventions is a useful model... extensive examination of the relationship between Surrealism, colonialism and ethnography that has until recently been overlooked... The Art Book: new and interesting observations I can only advise that you buy the book Bookforum: provides a rich feast of carefully researched insights... This is a much-needed work of scholarly restoration... a welcome antidote to popular notions of Surrealism as apolitical 'shock art' or as phallocentric and sexually exploitative. 'Cogent and Satisfying.' - History of Photography
