‎ Bruxelles, Les Lèvres Nues - Le Fait Accompli ( Marcel Mariën). 1968 - 1975. Complete series of this belgian surrealist periodical in 97 physical issues, in-4°, 29,5 x 23 cm, loose as issued. Printed on vergé paper ( on art paper for the 12 issues of Les Lèvres Nues ). Complete collection which includes , as it should be, the 12 issues of ''Les Lèvres nues''. There exist only 50 complete sets of this periodical as the first issues were only printed in that number, gradually climbing to a maximum of 250 copies. The last issue was printed in 145 copies. This is set number ''trente-huit'' (38), each issue numbered in lettering in red ink , in the hand of the editor Marcel Mariën. Issue 62-64 contains an additional dedication in his hand to the subscriber. This is a rare complete set in loose issues. Apart from some very slight dustsoiling at some issues and a uniform light browning of issues 11, 12 and 23 ( due to a different paper quality) this set is in very fine condition. Kept in 2 purposely made cloth boxes. Boxes in uniform red cloth, leather title label on back. Complete set of the foremost belgian surrealist periodical to appear after the Second World War. It contains important contributions by René Magritte which are often illustrated by the painter. E.g. Issue 3 ''Visions de gloire '', issue 34-35 Paul Nougé '' Pour illustrer Magritte''. Issue 78 René Magritte '' Francis Picabia la peinture animée.''... Texts in French. Revue en langue française.‎
