Surreal, Breton, Magritte, Ernst, Art, Poetry, Games; (1991 reprint) Paperback – Ex Used condition (some writing inside front cover)
Surrealism is far more than an aged art movement: it is also a collection of tools for perceiving and representing the world in ways that transcend normative perspectives. This delightful collection allows everyone to enjoy firsthand the provocative methods used by the artists and poets of the Surrealist school to break through conventional thought and behavior to a deeper truth. Invented and played by such artists as André Breton, Rene Magritte, and Max Ernst, these gems still produce results ranging from the hilarious to the mysterious and profound. This great little book is packed with word and image games that surrealists developed to create their written and graphical art. If you have any spark of creativity, you are strongly encouraged to get this book to help loosen the holds of quotidian existence on your craft. And it makes a great book of activities for parties that you want to rise above petite bourgeois posturing.
