"Surrealism is a style in the visual arts and modern literature which appeared in Paris after the First World War. The Surrealists sought to eliminate logic along with the boundaries between the Normal and the Fantastical, in order to create a better world through free associative play, using the forces of the subconscious. Their pictures are characterized by a spatial, material, non-abstract manner of painting with an almost photographic sharpness of detail, and they are more topical now than ever before.
