Surrealism

Surrealism was a Cultural Movement which started in 1920s and was best known for the Visual Artworks and Writings. The aim of this was to: "resolve the previously contradictory conditions of dream and reality" Artists used to paint unnerving illogical scenes with photographic precision which created strange creatures from normal objects.

Surrealist artists used an element of surprise, unexpected state of begin close together side by side and non sequitur which means "a statement having little or no relevance to what preceded it" Leader Andre Breton was explicit in his assertion that Surrealism was above all of the revolutionary movements.  

Surrealism was developed out of an European Art Movement called Dada, the most important place of the movement was based in Paris, France. From 1920s onward the Art Movement spread around the world and eventually affected:

• Visual Art
• Literature
• Film
• Musing
