Surrealism

Surrealism - Surrealist

 

Surrealism is an artistic and literary movement that emerged in the early 20th century, with André Breton as one of its key founders. It seeks to explore the irrational and subconscious aspects of the human mind. Surrealist art often features dreamlike and fantastical imagery, juxtaposing unrelated objects and ideas to create a sense of surprise and mystery. It is characterized by its use of automatic writing and drawing, as well as techniques like decalcomania and frottage. Surrealism has had a profound influence on both art and literature, pushing the boundaries of creativity and interpretation.
