VISUAL METAPHOR assamblage / collage / / surrealistic object

metaphor is a figure of speech that compares one thing to another. A metaphor states that one thing is another thing, instead of saying it’s like something else. It does not use “like” or “as” to make the comparison.

The Independents' Show of 1917 and Beyond Internal dissension led to the breakup of the Association of American Painters and Sculptors in Later that year the Society of Independent Artists was founded with the same goal as the AAPS, discovering and advancing new styles and artists. Its first exhibition, in 1917, was bigger than the Armory Show. More than twenty-five hundred works by some thirteen hundred artists were exhibited at the Grand Central Palace in New York City. It was not as successful critically or financially. Again critics were up in arms over Marcel Duchamp, who, under the pseudonym of Richard Mutt, had submitted a urinal as a piece of sculpture called Fountain. The society rejected it, but the considerable publicity surrounding the work, which was subsequently exhibited at Stieglitz's 291 gallery, helped to spread Duchamp's message: there was no difference between "art" and the most common aspects of human life. Though the involvement of the United States in World War I temporarily suspended discussions of aesthetics, the controversies and ideas that were born during the 1910s influenced American artists for the rest of the century.

However, both Marcel Duchamp and Pablo PicassoMarcel DuchampPablo Picasso had been working with found objects for many years prior to Dubuffet.
