SURREALISM

Surrealism is a 20th-century literary and artistic movement that attempted to express the workings of the subconscious by using fantastic imagery and the incongruous juxtaposition of subject matter.

Surrealism is a term that refers to a heightened sense of reality; translated from French, the term means: “over-realism”-- a vision of reality that supercedes the mundane!

(pronounced: rna mägrt, 1898-1967) RENE MAGRITTE (pronounced: rna mägrt, 1898-1967) "My painting is visible images which conceal nothing; they evoke mystery and, indeed, when one sees one of my pictures, one asks oneself this simple question 'What does that mean'? It does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it is unknowable.” - René Magritte

Rene Magritte was a Belgian surrealist painter. He painted in a realistic style. While the objects appear to the viewer to be recognizable, the composition of those recognizable objects appears fantastic.

His paintings are expressive for their juxtaposition of common objects, often altered in scale, and placed in absurd settings. Magritte is deeply interested in the process of thought, and his paintings tend to raise the awareness of the viewer to their own thought processes.

More often than not, Magritte chose ordinary things from which to construct his works - trees, chairs, tables, doors, windows, shoes, shelves, landscapes, people. He wanted to be understood via these ordinary things, but he also wanted to shock and surprise his viewers.

Erik Alos Erik Alos is a childhood friend of mine who began his career tagging and causing mayhem on the streets of downtown San Diego. He says one of his influences is Salvador Dali and that his drawings are a part of who he is. He couldn’t be authentic without them.
