Surrealism is a school of modern western literature. Popular in Europe between the two world wars, it has the most far-reaching influence in the field of visual art.
Committed to exploring people's subconscious psychology, he advocates breaking through the logical and practical concept of reality, completely giving up the realistic image based on logical and orderly experience memory, and integrating the concept of reality with instinct, subconscious and dream experience to show the image world in human deep psychology.
It is believed that many of people's instincts and desires are suppressed by the acceptance and control of the real world, and what can really show people's psychological true colors is the absolute and detached world outside reality, that is, the surreal world, which is people's deep psychology or dream.
Breaking the barrier between reason and consciousness, pursuing the free release of primitive impulses and ideas, and treating literary and artistic creation as a purely spontaneous psychological process are its basic characteristics.
Second, on behalf of
André Breton 1
André Breton (1896_ 1966), a French poet and critic, was one of the founders of surrealism. He and other surrealists pursue free imagination, get rid of the shackles of traditional aesthetics, introduce dreams and impulses into daily life and create a new reality.
André Breton was born in the French city of Tinchebre. I studied in the Medical College of Paris University, during which I came into contact with Freud's works. Freud's concept of subconscious has an important influence on Brighton's works.

Third, representative works
1, the eternity of memory
Eternity of Memory is an oil painting on canvas created by Spanish surrealist painter Salvador Dali 193 1. Now in new york Museum of Modern Art, USA.
Eternity of Memory depicts a quiet wilderness with pocket-sized techniques. The sea as calm as a mirror, the beach in Ma Pingchuan, the desolate coast, and the square pedestal, a board and a tree that can't appear in this environment.
Three clocks like soft cakes and a red clock without deformation stand out on the surface, covered with black ants, and a fly is resting on the soft table of the square table.
2, the omen of civil war
Spanish painter salvador dali's oil painting "65438-0936" is one of his masterpieces. The painter depicts the dismembered human body with exquisite brushstrokes, fills the picture with a frame-like structure connected with the human body, and shows that the crime was committed in broad daylight with the blue sky and white clouds as the background.
Painters regard this as a symbol of the horror and bloodiness of war, just like a bloody nightmare.
3. Najia
The books of young people in André Breton are confusing, full of accidents, randomness, coincidences and dreams. The author's subjective thoughts appeared in the objective narrative process of events, and images and words complemented each other, which became a masterpiece of surrealism and greatly influenced the literary and artistic process in the West in the 20th century.
