It is a culturally universal idea that only tells you one thing - do not conform. This video was edited by me and put together. It calls for us, the artist and the viewer, to abandon the reality we cling to and dream of something more. Thank you for watching this video Please leave a like if you enjoyed this content, it is very much appreciated. Man Ray played with the camera itself with his ‘rayographs’ whilst Raoul Ubac created unreal figures by combining several solar prints into a single image - a mess of limbs and nudity. Brassaï found surrealism in everyday objects, while Dora Maar created surrealist realities in staged photographs like ‘Pere Ubu’ named after ‘Ubu Roi’ a late 19th-century play by Alfred Jarry that greatly influenced the ‘Surrealists’. Photography - a medium meant to capture the world as it truly is - became a unique fixture in surrealist art. People around the world rebelled against common conceptions of art and artistic mediums. In Egypt, the movement was used as a political rebellion, and in Japan, a technological one. So Surreal ‘Surrealism: Beyond Borders’ not only shows how ‘Surrealism’ broke through cultural boundaries to become a worldwide art form, but it also prominently displays how ‘Surrealism’ breaks through the borders of our minds and reality.
