WRITTEN IN FRENCH

Pioneered by poet André Breton, surrealism is a literary and artistic movement that has become one of the most popular of the 20th century . Surrealist artists distinguished themselves by letting their unconscious, their dreams, speak, and, guided by chance alone, they created strange juxtapositions of unrelated objects and words. They created these creations on a multitude of supports and materials, from Meret Oppenheim and her surprising fur-covered cup to Edward James's fantastical garden, Los Pozas, located in the heart of the Mexican rainforest. In this book, Amy Dempsey introduces the key figures of the movement, their works and the places to discover them, and also explores the codes of surrealism and the legacy it left. This essential guide includes an indispensable glossary, a chronology of surrealism's defining moments and suggested readings for further reading.
