An impressive retrospective of the hugely influential but much overlooked French engraver Cécile Reims [1927-2020], who quite aside from being a survivor of the Nazi atrocities, and a member of the French Resistance during WW2, was a major collaborator with the opaque and controversial artist Hans Bellmer, working with him on over 250 pieces between 1967 and 1975.
