With Salvador Dal??? as its figurehead, the great ship of Surrealism traversed the turbulent seas of the early 20th century with sails billowing with dreams and desires. Inspired by the psychoanalytical practice of Sigmund Freud, the Surrealists championed the unconscious as the domain of truth, uninhibited by the standards or expectations of society. With techniques ranging from hypnotism to nocturnal walks to automatic writing, the likes of Andr??? Breton, Max Ernst, Brassa???, and Meret Oppenheim produced paintings, drawings, texts, and films in which they sought to excavate their most intimate and primal instincts. The results abound with sexual fantasies, with mysterious, menacing creatures, and with the juxtaposition of seemingly contradictory objects or ideas. This book introduces the origins and the sensational legacy of the Surrealist movement, one of the most profound and enduring influences on film, theater, literature, art, and thought. Featured artists: Hans Arp, Andr??? Breton, Giorgio de Chirico, Salvador Dal???, Max Ernst, Alberto Giacometti, Paul Klee, Ren??? Magritte, Andr??? Masson, Matta, Joan Mir???, Pablo Picasso, Meret Oppenheim, Yves Tanguy
