Surrealism: Art, Politics, and the Unconscious

Details

Surrealism wasn’t just an art movement—it was a radical response to a world in crisis. Emerging in the wake of World War I, Surrealist artists and writers sought to disrupt reality, drawing on Freudian psychoanalysis, dreams, and the irrational to challenge conventional thought. In this session, we’ll explore the movement’s key figures, from André Breton to Leonora Carrington, its political engagements, and its lasting impact on art and culture.

Join us for a discussion on how Surrealism reimagined the boundaries of art, politics, and the unconscious!
