CATE2003
The Surrealists challenged orthodox views on 'nature', 'reality', 'morality', and 'beauty'. They were dedicated to social and artistic freedom, an art of the instincts, and the power of the unconscious. What ethical, aesthetic, and political aspects of Surrealism are relevant to art in the Twenty-First century and what is the nature of the surrealist impulse in contemporary art and design?
