Movements in Modern Art

This series introduces the most important movements in late nineteenth- and twentieth-century art. Each book is illustrated chiefly in colour with works from the Tate Gallery and other major collections around the world.

Surrealism was one of the most interesting and influential art movements of the twentieth century. A collective adventure begun by a small group of intellectuals in Paris in the early 1920s, amongst them Max Ernst, René Magritte and Salvador Dali, its influence was felt through the rest of continental Europe and in Britain, the United States, Mexico and Japan.

This introduction summarises and offers new insights into the complexities of the Surrealist imagination. lt documents how the artists met, the relationship of Surrealism to Dada, The position of women, as Surrealist subject-matter as well as artists in their own right, and Surrealism in the cinema and theatre are all examined. There is close analysis of individual works, many of them from the Tate Gallery collection.
