This beautifully designed book presents the top ten figures in surrealist art, telling their stories alongside quotes and highlighting key works.
The surrealist movement, which began in the early 1920s, pushed the boundaries of reality, dream and the subconscious, blending reality with fantastical elements.
The Pocket Surrealism provides a concise introduction to the artists who shaped the movement. Looking at ten key figures, Surrealism comes to life with informative facts and quotes, highlighting some of the most imaginative and unexpected works.
From the Father of Surrealism André Breton and the iconic melting clock of Salvador Dalà to René Magritte's witty visual paradoxes and Frida Kahlo's deeply personal themes of identity and the subconscious, this insightful guide is the perfect gift for any art lover.
Featured Artists:
Man Ray / Max Ernst / Joan Miró / André Masson / René Magritte / Yves Tanguy / Salvador Dalà / Remedios Varo / Dorothea Tanning / Leonora Carrington
