  • Surrealism emerged in the early 1920s as an artistic embrace of the subconscious

    Surrealism is above all a philosophy of liberation. As such creating or not creating art is secondary. What matters is creating and changing life

      Which is why the fascist Dali was kicked out of the movement.

    Surrealism is when you stare at a field of golden wheat outside of a car window, and see it turning into the sandy dunes of a land long forgotten, or an endless sea with impossible ships wearing sails of cloud. Surrealism is the desire to explore our worlds and others, Surrealism is the embodiment of imagination. This is why so many people love the works of artists like Rob Gonsalves. The images they create are more than just paint on canvas, but a chance to return to the land of fairy tales we all end up leaving as we grow up.

    I would stick to a scientific point of view. Surrealism tries to represent the unconscious, present in our dreams, mainly in the REM phase.
    During the cycles of our dream, there are some 5 REM phases of different length, from 5 to 30 minutes.
    What happens in the REM phase?
    Physical movements are restricted to the eyelid quick movements. The rest of the neural circuits involved in motion are switched off. The mind begins to wander and see events that are not logical or deformed in time and space. This is because the neural circuits in charge of logic, space and time are switched off.
    However, those circuits involved in emotions (the Limbic System) are working...That´s why dreams have such an intense emotional content.
    A bit too rational, but that´s the way it is. The time we sleep is not wasted: the brain is sorting out things received during the day and consolidating them. In neuroscience there´s a saying that runs:
    " Birds dream of their songs, mice dream of their mazes".
    The lesson you have studied just before going to sleep is the first that you always remember clearly.

      @@diptibenlambsar6337 You're welcome.
      This subject is not needed just for just for art. You learn the kinds of contents that are or should be considered as general culture and not just "highbrow stuff". I'm no psychologist or medicine doctor at all: just choose what I read and hear and give it a certain value for my life (health, etc.) or as a "cultural subject".
      REM is known as an band also mentioned in papers, Tv, movies: but little people takes the time or has the interest to learn the basics about the word behind it, even if it is about the way your body works while you sleep.

    For me, surrealism is closer to what may or may not be reality than any artistic expression.
