Contributor Bio(s): Luca, Gherasim: - Luca was born July 23, 1913 in Bucharest into a liberal Jewish family. His father was a tailor. Luca, who spoke Yiddish, Romanian, German, and French, traveled frequently to Paris in the late 1930s where he became acquainted with the Surrealists. World War II and Romania's official anti-Semitism forced him into internal exile. During the short pre-Communist period of Romanian independence, he helped to found the Romanian Surrealist Group. He finally left Romania in 1952, and moved to Paris, where he died on February 9, 1994, at the age of 80, by throwing himself into the Seine. |
