Of course !

A surrealist exhibition is driven by imagination and not by money.

Now, finding money and having imagination for it is also a valid and quite 
honorable surrealist activity.
Let's get the existing works, produce the rest and scan, photography and type. 
Let's get the "physical" organization of the exhibition, the rest will come 
one way or another (I mean several others...)
