Franklin Rosemont (born October 2, 1943) was co founder of the Surrealist Movement in the United States.
Rosemont also evokes the social space created by the IWW’s meeting halls scattered across the U.S. Rosemont confronts the problem that “biographical data on Hill is discouragingly skimpy”, though “he is probably the best-known hobo in U.S. history”.
Rosemont attacks Dubofsky and other academics for seeing the IWW as in decline in 1919 and says, no, it was 1924, but he doesn't ever devote one line to describing the reasons for that downturn.

Genovese has also introduced the "excavation" collage which is the layering of printed images, loosely affixed at the corners and then tearing away bits of the upper layer to reveal images from underneath, thereby introducing a new 'collage' of images.
Penelope Rosemont invented some methods of surrealist collage, the prehensilhouette and the landscapade.
The bible of discordianism, the Principia Discordia, is described by its author as a literary collage.

ROSEMONT: When it was founded as an organized movement in 1924, surrealism was defined as "pure psychic automatism." The first surrealists wanted to explore the unconscious, to release the repressed creative spirit, and yes, to liberate desire.
ROSEMONT: It was in the summer of '66.
ROSEMONT: Roughly thirty, though it's difficult to pin down because so many of the contributors are polyethnic or have moved from country to country, especially during World War II, when so many people were displaced.

Penelope Rosemont (born 1942 Chicago, Illinois) was welcomed into the Surrealist Movement in Paris by André Breton.
She has been active in the surrealist movement since 1966 as a painter, photographer, collagist and writer.
Rosemont is the editor of Surrealist Women: An International Anthology (University of Texas, 1998) and the author of Surrealist Experiences (Black Swan Press, 2000).

 ArtScope.net: Surrealist Experiences
Penelope Rosemont did meet for a time with Andre and Elisa Breton (as well as with Man Ray, Toyen, and more, in this anthology inter alia) in Paris, at the exhibition, L'Ecart absolu [Absolute Divergence: 1965-66] and this period is documented in Rosemont's Surrealist Women: An Anthology (University of Texas Press: 1998).
Penelope Rosemont still works within an ongoing Breton-esque tradition, albeit with forays beyond.
There is much of this approach in Rosemont's images: a divergence from Duchamp and Max Ernst (heirs of Dada), and affinities with Dali's course (a reworked, painterly refinement of image).

 Luminous continent   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
She goes at these hardened biases and misrepresentations with the combined arsenals of a mathematician, field researcher, archivist and primary witness.
Like the oversized letters on an imaginary map, Rosemont's project marks a new continent that runs from Paris to Fort-de-France, from Prague to New York, from Buenos Aires to Montreal, highlighting unknown epicenters of surrealist activity, exploding like a thousand gunshots in the night.
Beyond the radical international aspect, what engages the reader is Rosemont's refusal to give center stage to the few rare women who have managed to penetrate the walls of the male enclave and make a name for themselves: Frida Kahlo, Meret Oppenheim, Leonora Carrington, Nancy Cunard.

This is not what is attempted: "my aim here is not to separate the sexes or to exclude men, but rather to include more women that have ever been included before in an anthology of surrealism", she writes, a tad disingenuously.
Women, one feels the male artists might have reasoned (though Rosemont does not say so), were more 'primitive', more in touch with the unconscious, more childlike, less sophisticated than men; epithets that would make us blaze nowadays, when 'intuitive' is a barely acceptable substitute.
In Chapter 5 Rosemont quotes Herbert Marcuse as being one of the first to point out that the May '68 uprising in Paris was a vindication of surrealism.

Even people who venerate the Surrealist art in the Art Institute's Bergman Collection might be surprised to find that those marvelous works of art are not like dinosaur bones, but part of a living tradition: there are artists here in Chicago who are part of an international group of Surrealists.
Penelope and Franklin Rosemont along with other members of the Chicago Surrealist Group, followers of French artist Andre Breton, whose hospitality and approval they enjoyed in Paris during the sixties, are still avidly engaged in Surrealist practice.
Penelope Rosemont's Surrealist Women: An International Anthology was issued by the University of Texas Press (1998).

 Surrealist Experiences
One of the very few Americans welcomed into the Surrealist Movement in Paris by André Breton himself, Penelope Rosemont has been a quickening force in world surrealism since the 1960s.
Focused on fortuitous encounters and their many-sided magic, Rosemont in these essays explores the importance of play, the affinities of alchemy and anarchy, poetry in the comics, the revolutionary significance of a fairy tale, the game of Time-Travelers' Potlatch, and the future of surrealism.
Now Penelope Rosemont has given us, better than anyone else in the English language, a marvelous, meticulous exploration of the surrealist experience, in all its infinite variety."

I wish that Penelope Rosemont were not a surrealist or a principal animator of the Chicago Surrealist Group.
If that were the case, I could simply fault her for seeming not to understand the kind of rigor that surrealists have been known for in the past, and should be expected to sustain in the present.
What Rosemont does not add here is Le Brun's consistent refusal to be "recuperated" by those who consider themselves animators of contemporary surrealism, and which would include Rosemont, the Chicago Group and others around the world.

Until Penelope Rosemont's "Women Surrealists" was published anybody wishing to find out about women in surrealism and who did not have a easy access to research facilities, were reduced to reading inaccurate and misleading works such as Whitney Chadwick's.
I have no hesitation in saying that Rosemont's book is the only worthwhile and substantial work in English on women surrealists -there really is nothing else that is at all comprehensive and accurate.
Firstly, Rosemont writes as a practising surrealist, as such, she writes with passion, involvement and inside knowlege.

Letting surrealist women speak for themselves, Penelope Rosemont has assembled nearly three hundred texts by ninety-seven women from twenty-eight countries in Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and the African diaspora.
Yet Penelope Rosemont's groundbreaking collection suggests that an international group of women have been central to surrealism from the beginning.
Rachel Blackwell says, "In unraveling the heretofore untold story of surrealism's many women, Penelope Rosemont combines state-of-the-art scholarship with deep insight and high humor.

In this first anthology of writings by women Surrealists, drawn from an impressively global group, Rosemont (Beware of the Ice and Other Poems, Black Swan, 1992) dives deeper than the extant writing on the movement to unearth the women involved since its inception.
Rosemont's insightful introduction, short essays prefacing each major period of the movement, and brief bibliographies illuminate a vibrant revolution in process.
Beginning in Paris in the 1920s, women poets, essayists, painters, and artists in other media have actively collaborated in defining and refining surrealism's basic project—achieving a higher, open, and dynamic consciousness, from which no aspect of the real or the imaginary is rejected.
