Portuguese edition of Art and Social Change: A Critical Reader (0020998).

Collects an international selection of artists' proposals, manifestos, theoretical texts and public declarations that focus on the question of political engagement and the possibility of social change. pp.100-105 is the text of the British Surrealist Group's 1938 pamphlet "We Ask Your Attention", signed by Moore along with 14 other members. One of the images on the cover, no.1, shows surrealist artists marching in the 1938 May Day procession, carrying placards that read "Chamberlain must go" and wearing masks of Neville Chamberlain's face designed by F. E. McWilliam.
