Renée Gauthier

Renée Gauthier was one of the earliest women to be involved in surrealism.

A close friend of Benjamin Péret, Gauthier took part in the hypnotic sleep experiments organized by René Crevel in 1922-3.[1] She contributed an account of a dream, starting “I am in a field with Jim”, to the first issue of La Révolution surréaliste in December 1924.[2]

gollark: A very quick internet search says there were indeed no bodies found there, but also that they could plausibly just have been stolen.
gollark: With some stuff inside of them where they buried people, I guess.
