The story behind the answer

What was the name of the surrealist magazine that succeeded “La Révolution surréaliste”? It was “Le Surréalisme au service de la révolution.”

The periodical was issued by the Surrealist Group in Paris from 1930 to 1933. Its title—“Surrealism in the Service of the Revolution”—signaled a stronger political emphasis after debates within the movement about communism, revolutionary commitment, and the direction of Surrealist activity.

André Breton and his supporters developed the magazine after the publication of Breton’s Second Manifesto of Surrealism in 1929. Contributors included Paul Éluard, Louis Aragon, René Crevel, Tristan Tzara, Salvador Dalí, René Char, Benjamin Péret, and Luis Buñuel.

The magazine published six issues. It followed “La Révolution surréaliste,” which ran from 1924 to 1929, and was followed in the same year by “Minotaure,” a more lavish Surrealist periodical. “Documents” and “VVV” are related avant-garde publications, but neither was the direct successor asked for here.
