- In 1924, French poet André Breton wrote a short text with fellow poet and compatriot Louis Aragon that was to send ripples through the world of art and literature, providing a blueprint for the avant-garde movements of the 20th century. One century later, we take a look at how the Surrealist Manifesto prompted an intellectual and artistic revolution in 1920s Paris; a statement of intent that was to have repercussions far beyond the French capital in the years that followed.

You omitted to mention Italian artist Giorgio de Chirico whose Metaphysical Art (1910-1919) was a major influence on Surrealism when from its initial literary output the movement aimed to develop into a visual art form. Without de Chirico’s Italian Piazzas with oblique perspective, geometric sunshine and shadows, ancient busts and porticos, distant horizons and tiny trains, Surrealism may not have developed at all. Look at Dalì’s perspectives, look at Magritte’s juxtapositions. Magritte declared that when in 1924 he saw a b&w reproduction of de Chirico’s masterpiece Song of Love (1914 MoMA) he wrote: “I cried, for the first time in my life I saw thought” and then decided to leave commercial art and become an artist.
Es cierto el primero antes de magritte fue Chirico!
P0Ppppppppppppppp
Thank you so much. A great documentary no doubt.

Giorgio De Chirico was the true first surrealist 10 years before the Breton's manifesto.
Excellent

Such a wrong explanation of surrealism and it’s Bretonean cult
If this is so wrong, would you care to share a video I could watch that explains this correctly?
@@Morecie you can read deleuze critique on surrealism and it’s nationalistic church

The Songs of Maldoror) is a French poetic novel, or a long prose poem. It was written and published between 1868 and 1869 by the Comte de Lautréamont, the nom de plume of the Uruguayan-born French writer Isidore Lucien Ducasse.[1] The work concerns the misanthropic, misotheistic character of Maldoror, a figure of evil who has renounced conventional morality.
