Book excerpt: "Surrealism is as much an intellectual movement as an artistic one. Indeed, Surrealist painting, sculpture and objects are often the physical emanation of visionary, philosophical, moral and erotic systems linerated from the constraints of reality. This brightly coloured and comprehensive survey of the creators of Surrealist art places them in the context of their time and provides a bibliographical dicitonary of the major as well as the less well-known Surrealist artists and their precursors." - book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Expressionism is not only an artistic movement but a permanent tendency in art that has been characteristic of Northern Europe in times of social stress and political disturbance. The first Expressionist movement incorporated Art Nouveau and Symbolist influence, including Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec, Ensor and Munch. The artists of Die Brucke in Germany and, France, Rouault and Picasso (in his Blue Period), led up to the formation of the Blaue Reiter group in Munich just before the Second World War. In Vienna, Schiele and Kokoschka rose to prominence, while in Paris exiles such as Soutine, Pascin and Chagall brought Expressionism westwards. This book covers the painters, and graphic artists, sculptors and architects, writers and playwrights, cinema producers, designers and musicians of Expressionism."--BOOK JACKET.

The Encyclopedia presents the first comprehensive and systematic overview of surrealism internationally, covering the theorists, critics, novelists, poets, playwrights, screenwriters, painters, collagists, object makers, sculptors, and film makers who made the surrealist movement. Alongside articles on writers and visual artists, the Encyclopedia includes overviews of national surrealist movements, related artistic and intellectual movements, key journals, patrons and collections, detailed overviews of surrealism's influence across the visual, applied and performing arts, and analyses of the key concepts which underpin surrealist theory and practice.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Surrealism written by Keith Aspley and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite surrealism's celebration of the subconscious and eschewal of reason, the movement was nevertheless concerned with definitions. Andre Breton included a dictionary-style entry for surrealisme in his 1924 Manifeste du surrealisme and later explored juxtapositions of the absurd and the mundane in the 1938 Dictionnaire abrege du surrealisme. To the mountain of literature that seeks to organize the far-reaching intellectual movement, Aspley (honorary fellow, Univ. of Edinburgh) adds this handy volume that organizes the breadth of surrealism into concise entries on artists, writers, artworks, and themes. A chronology highlights events that sparked the surrealist imagination, activities of formal surrealist groups, and exhibitions. An introductory essay and extensive bibliography are included. One of the few English-language reference sources about surrealism published in the last decade, Aspley's dictionary is useful for quick access to key terms and biographies. For a book devoted to a movement characterized by arresting visual imagery, the lack of illustrations is annoying. Even Rene Passeron's 1978 Phaidon Encyclopedia of Surrealism (CH, May'79) reprints artworks in color. For a richly illustrated and comprehensive history, see Gerard Durozi's History of the Surrealist Movement (CH, Nov'02, 40-1316). Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-level undergraduates through graduate students. Lower-division Undergraduates; Upper-division Undergraduates; Graduate Students. Reviewed by A. H. Simmons.

Book excerpt: Surrealism was born to affirm unlimited faith in the genius of youth." – Andre Breton Literary surrealism begins with the death of dada in 1924; a movement to liberate expressive form, to release the world of the subconscious, of dreams and nightmares, paranoia, suppressed eroticism, and the dark side of the mind. Humor, extravagance, cruelty and anguish "outside all aesthetic or moral preoccupations" recur in the art of Max Ernst, Rene Magritte, Salvador Dali, Paul Delvaux, Yves Tanguy, Joan Miro, Jean (Hans) Arp, Henry Moore and Man Ray among others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the movement from its origins in the 1920s to its decline in the 1950s and 1960s, Durozoi tells the history of Surrealism through its activities, publications, and reviews, demonstrating its close ties to some of the most explosive political, as well as creative, debates of the twentieth century. Unlike other histories, which focus mainly on the pre-World War II years of the movement in Paris, Durozoi covers both a wider chronological and geographic range, treating in detail the postwar years and Surrealism's colonization of Latin America, the United States, Japan, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Italy, and North Africa. Drawing on documentary and visual evidence--including 1,000 photos, many of them in color--he illuminates all the intellectual and artistic aspects of the movement, from literature and philosophy to painting, photography, and film. All the Surrealist stars and their most important works are here--Aragon, Borges, Breton, Buñuel, Cocteau, Crevel, Dalí, Desnos, Ernst, Man Ray, Soupault, and many more--for all of whom Durozoi has provided brief biographical notes in addition to featuring them in the main text.
