  1. SURREALISM art intended to express, either verbally or in writing, the true function of thought. Thought and ideas grown out of free play of thought and the absence of all control exerted by reason. The use of hyper real or fantastical images to express ideas and thought.

  2. SURREALSIM grew out of the war-era as a reaction against violence and the "rationality" which led to the war in the first place. The main point of their manifesto was to replace rational thought with imagination, which they believed was much more valuable than reason. The Surrealist movement was completely revolutionary: it wasn't just an artistic movement, it was a whole philosophy to the artists who practiced it. They aimed to change not only artistic practice, but society as a whole. It transcended the arts by attempting to change a variety of other fields, including literature, politics, and psychology

  4. Surrealism and the subconscious • Surrealist artists wanted their work to be a link between the abstract spiritual realities and the real forms of the material world.. Through their craft, whether it be painting, sculpting or drawing, artists could bring the inner realities of the subconscious to the conscious mind, so that their meaning could be deciphered through analysis..

  5. Surreal Gamesaccessing dream images and free association • Surrealists were interested in the unconscious mind and dreams. They often produced imagery that was randomly put together without conscious thought. The results were often humorous and surreal. • surrealist methodology--the use of techniques, such as automatic writing, self-induced hallucinations, and word games like the exquisite corpse, to make manifest repressed mental activities.

Surreal Techniques“How to make the ordinary look extraordinary” • Juxtaposition:(putting two different things side by side that don’t normally go together); • Transformation:(when objects are placed where they shouldn’t be); • Dislocation:(turning something familiar into something unusual and disturbing).
