Talk: Introducing Surrealism!

Surrealism is not a style of art – it’s a way a thinking and looking at the world.

Surrealism was launched in 1924, in the wake of the First World War. Artists, writers, poets, musicians, and filmmakers gathered in Paris, wanting to disrupt the status quo and open up a new, expanded reality. Surrealist ideas quickly spread around Europe and the world.

Join Curator Modern Art Lizzie Bisley for an introduction to surrealism, and the dada movement that preceded it.
