Email: Cousins birthday. Loves surreal art, architecture & books. (Canada)
Happy Birthday!
A completely new way of looking at & understanding Surrealism. A focus on the worldwide sweep of the movement. Challenges the conventional narratives of Surrealism, tracing it’s impact & legacy from places as diverse as Colombia, Egypt, Japan, Mexico, Philippines, Romania, Syria, Thailand & Turkey. An inclusive understanding of the fundamentally international character & lasting significance of the revolutionary artistic & philosophical movement. Vibrantly illustrated with over 300 works of art by masters – Dalí, Ernst, Kahlo, Magritte, Miró & many under-represented artists. Expansively pushes beyond the borders of history & geography to provocatively re-draw the map of the Surrealist movement. Investigates how it’s visual languages, ideals, theories & practices were framed in contexts far from it’s Parisian origins. Incredibly creative & inspirational – Surrealism Beyond Borders.
