*** About Surrealism in Art: Surrealism is a cultural movement that began in the early 1920s, known for its visual artworks and writings. Artists like Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, and Max Ernst sought to channel the unconscious as a means to unlock the power of the imagination. Disdaining rationalism and literary realism, and powerfully influenced by psychoanalysis, the surrealists believed the rational mind repressed the power of the imagination, weighting it down with taboos. Artworks often feature unexpected juxtapositions and abstract themes that explore the human psyche, dreams, and the complexities of the human condition. This artistic form has profoundly influenced various genres of art, including literature and film, continuing to captivate and inspire audiences around the globe.
