Some Key Characteristics of Surrealism:

*Emphasis on the mysterious, marvelous, mythological and irrational in an effort to make art ambiguous and strange.
*Expression of our most basic drives: hunger, sexuality, anger, fear, dread, ecstasy, and so forth.

*The desire to push against the boundaries of socially acceptable behaviors and traditions in order to discover pure thought and the artist's true nature.

Surrealism became an official art movement in 1924 with the publishing of Le Manifeste du Surréalisme (The Surrealist Manifesto)
by André Breton. Breton defines Surrealism as "Psychic automatism in its pure state, by which one proposes to express - verbally,
by means of the written word, or in any other manner - the actual functioning of thought." Breton proposes that the surrealist
should seek access to the unconscious mind in order to make art inspired by this realm.

Surrealism to me is reality." - John Lennon

A surrealist generates creative works that exposes the inner mind in bizarre and symbolic ways.
Surrealist art depicts dream imagery and archetypal symbols derived from the unconscious.
The surrealist employs collage aesthetics as a way to tap into the subconscious.
