Surrealism began in the 1920s as a cultural movement encompassing various art forms including painting, sculpture, music and film. It aimed to depict the unconscious mind and what lies beyond realism according to writer Guillaume Apollinaire. Salvador Dali described it as the symbolic language of the subconscious. Some surrealist art techniques included collage, decalcomania, and frottage. Prominent surrealist artists were Joan Miro, Max Ernst, and Salvador Dali, whose photography with Philippe Halsman required 26 attempts to capture. Surrealism continues to influence various creative fields like web design today.Surrealism PowerPoint

Surrealism sought to free the imagination and tap into the unconscious mind. It featured bizarre, dreamlike subject matter and was influenced by Freudian psychoanalysis. Two main types of Surrealists existed: those who created art automatically to depict the subconscious, and those like Dali and Magritte who used everyday objects placed in impossible contexts. Key figures like Dali, Magritte, and Miro used surrealism to comment on the human condition and realities beyond the obvious.Surrealism final

Surrealism began in the 1920s as an artistic movement that aimed to represent unconscious thoughts and dreams through techniques like automatic drawing and frottage. The movement was inspired by Freudian psychoanalysis and sought to challenge rational thought. Early artists like Max Ernst and Joan Miro used automatic techniques to illustrate the subconscious, while later artists like Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, and Yves Tanguy created meticulously realistic images of hallucinatory scenes. Feminist critics argue that Surrealism adopted male attitudes towards women and portrayed them in stereotypical ways.Edgar degas

Edgar Degas began painting as a young boy and turned his bedroom into an artist's studio by age 18. He initially wanted to paint historical scenes but found everyday scenes more interesting. He moved to Paris and became known for his paintings of ballet dancers and Paris nightlife, spending hours studying dancers' movements in dance studios. One of his most famous works is Little Dancer of Fourteen Years, which depicted a dancer at rest in an unposed manner and used real elements like hair, ribbons, and tutus to make the scene feel authentic.Salvador Dali

Originally a literary movement, Surrealism explored dreams, the unconscious mind, and the intersection of reality and imagination. Inspired by World War I destruction and Sigmund Freud's theories of the mind, early Surrealist artists like Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, and Joan Miro created works featuring illogical juxtapositions and impossible realities to represent inner psychic processes. Their surreal paintings, filled with dreamlike and disturbing images, became popular in France and other European countries in the 1920s.Dada

Famous Dadaists included Jean Arp, Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, Man Ray, and Kurt Schwitters who worked in mediums like painting, sculpture, photography, poetry and collage.Andy Warhol

Surrealism is an early 20th century cultural movement that began in Paris in the 1920s. It aimed to combine dream and reality through visual artworks and writings that featured surprising juxtapositions and scenes depicted with photographic precision. Surrealist works were intended as expressions of the philosophical movement first and foremost, with the goal of resolving contradictions between dreams and reality. The leader André Breton asserted Surrealism was above all a revolutionary movement that developed from Dada and spread globally in the following decades to influence various artistic fields as well as political and social thought.Georges Seurat Pointillism

Cubism emerged in France in the early 1900s led by Picasso and Braque who were influenced by Cezanne's geometric breakdown of forms. They depicted objects from multiple perspectives simultaneously on canvas. This analytical cubism gave way to synthetic cubism where collage elements were incorporated. Other notable cubists included Gris, Delaunay, Leger, and Duchamp. While revolutionary, cubism was highly controversial as it broke conventions and its abstract forms were difficult for audiences to understand. Over time it had a massive influence on modern art.Max ernst

The term "avant-garde" originated in the 19th century in France to describe artists who pioneered new ideas and styles in their work. It referred to those who acted as the vanguard or advance party for art. Henri de Saint-Simon first used the term to describe how artists could spread new ideas through their works and exert positive influence over society. Avant-garde art is generally considered to have begun in the 1850s with Gustave Courbet's realist works and continued through successive modern art movements. While some avant-garde styles focused on innovations in form, others had strong social programs as well.

Piet Mondrian was a Dutch painter born in 1872 who is considered one of the pioneers of 20th century abstract art. He began his career painting landscapes in a realistic style but over time developed his signature abstract geometric style using only the primary colors, black, white, and grey arranged in vertical and horizontal lines. This style, known as Neoplasticism, aimed to represent spiritual order and balance. Later in life, Mondrian moved to New York where the city's grid structure likely influenced his further simplified abstract compositions featuring blocks of primary colors divided by thick, black lines.Surrealism

The Dada movement began in Zurich in 1916 as a reaction against World War I. Dada artists rejected tradition and logic and embraced nonsense, chaos and randomness. Key figures included Hugo Ball, Tristan Tzara, Hans Arp, Marcel Duchamp and Kurt Schwitters. Dada spread to other cities and used techniques like photomontage, found objects and sound poetry to protest war and social norms. By the early 1920s, internal conflicts emerged and Dada dissolved, but its anti-art spirit influenced later artistic movements like Surrealism.Interlude

Surrealism valued difference and the unconscious. It explored sexuality, desire, and the feminine through the metaphorical and the unexpected in artworks. Surrealist works by Miro, Dali, Masson and others used automatic techniques to reveal dreams and subconscious imagery. Surrealists were inspired by Freudian psychoanalysis and sought to critique social repression by exposing desires and fantasies. Women were seen as closer to the unconscious. Breton's book Nadja explored chance encounters and aimless wandering in Paris as a way to access the unconscious.Surrealism

Surrealism was an artistic movement that began in the early 1920s. It emphasized tapping into the subconscious mind to create dreamlike scenes and juxtapose unrelated objects. The founder was Andre Breton, who defined it as resolving the contradictions between dream and reality. Surrealist artists painted scenes with photographic precision but illogical elements, combining everyday objects in strange ways. The movement inspired other fields like film, literature, fashion and challenged conventional views of reality.Twelfth Night (What You Will)
