 Also joining them was Nadine Krainik, a former lover of Păun's, who would settle in Paris soon after the war and serve as a link between the Romanian and French surrealist groups, namely between Luca and André Breton.Păun's 1945 exhibition served as the basis for a surrealist happening engineered by his university colleague, poet Alexandru Lungu.Lungu plastered the drawings with labels proclaiming Păun as "not a peacock, but an angel".
