Abigail Susik is an art historian, vice president of the International Society for the Study of Surrealism, and editor of Resurgence! Jonathan Leake, Radical Surrealism, and the Resurgence Youth Movement, 1964-1967, a compilation of publications by a surrealist sixties' anarchist group in NYC.

For this Armed Love episode, we challenge ourselves to understand the political potency of the interwar avant-garde art movements (Dada, Futurism, Surrealism), their resurgence within the sixties New Left, and the potentials for avant-garde revolutionary praxis to confront political challenges today.
