Marcel Duchamp ( 28 July 1887 – 2 October 1968 ; ) was a French artist whose work is most often associated with the Dadaist and Surrealist movements.

He called his theory of art " transautomatism ", based on Surrealist automatism, but focusing on the experience of the viewer, rather than the artist.

In 1936, Surrealist artist Joseph Cornell, who bought a print of the movie to screen at home, became smitten with the actress, and cut out nearly all the parts that did not include her.

At this time Surrealist leader, André Breton, defined readymades as " manufactured objects raised to the dignity of works of art through the choice of the artist.

* The Surrealist artist Salvador Dalí was also highly influenced by the life of Cellini, centering many etchings and sketches around his story and passions.

This manifested itself not only in the type of imagery that appeared in these works but in the method Rego employed which was based on the Surrealist idea of automatic drawing, in which the artist attempts to disengage the conscious mind from the making process to allow the unconscious mind to direct the image making.

Franklin Rosemont ( 2 October 1943 – 12 April 2009 ) was a poet, artist, historian, street speaker, and co-founder of the Chicago Surrealist Group.

De Chirico strongly influenced the Surrealist movement: Yves Tanguy wrote how one day in 1922 he saw one of De Chirico's paintings in an art dealer's window, and was so impressed by it he resolved on the spot to become an artist — although he had never even held a brush.

He was not only an artist, but also a publisher, a bookseller, a sailor, a journalist in China and an elaborate Surrealist prankster.

In 1937, he first encountered the surrealist paintings of René Magritte in exhibition and – inspired by André Breton ’ s Surrealist Manifesto-traveled to Brussels to seek out the artist.

Katherine Linn Sage ( June 25, 1898 – January 8, 1963 ), usually known as Kay Sage, was an American Surrealist artist and poet.

Several stories are told about Sage ’ s meeting with her future husband, Surrealist artist Yves Tanguy.

More fundamentally, I call Sage a Surrealist because her allegiance to the Surrealist identity lies at the heart of her self-image as an artist.

* Jack Boynton ( 1928 – 2010 ), American Contemporary Surrealist artist

They were introduced through a mutual friendship with the Surrealist artist Oscar Dominguez.

Surrealist artist Yanni Osmond and his partner Spanky the Woman Tamer licensed some of Donna the Buffalo's music for their upcoming cartoon Living Evil.

She worked closely with fellow Surrealist poet and artist Jindřich Štyrský until his death.

Both of Gordon Matta-Clark's parents were artists: the American Anne Clark and the Chilean Surrealist painter Roberto Matta, artist of Basque, French and Spanish descent.

Méret Oppenheim ( 6 October 1913 — 15 November 1985 ) was a German-born Swiss, Surrealist artist, and photographer.

Gerome Kamrowski ( January 29, 1914 – March 27, 2004 ) was an American artist and participant in the Surrealist Movement in the United States.

He developed very close relationships with painter Salvador Dalí and poet Federico García Lorca, among other important Spanish creative artists living in the Residencia de Estudiantes, with the three friends forming the nucleus of the Spanish Surrealist avant-garde, and becoming known as members of " La Generacion del 27 ".

In the summer of 1936, the artistic movement known as surrealism first appeared in London as Salvador Dalí held his first British exhibition at the Alex, Reid and Lefevre Gallery, while the International Surrealist Exhibition opened at the New Burlington Gallery.

L ’ Age d ’ or (), The Golden Age ( 1930 ), directed by Luis Buñuel, is a Surrealist comedy about the insanities of modern life, the hypocrisy of the sexual mores of bourgeois society and the value system of the Roman Catholic Church ; the screenplay is by Salvador Dalí and Buñuel.

She has a major role as Woody Allen's psychiatrist wife in his To Rome with Love and she also stars in The Surrealist about Salvador Dali.

In early August 1929, Éluard and Gala visited a young Surrealist painter in Spain, the emerging Salvador Dalí.

His own projects include Mark Dresser's " Force Green ," and the Mark Dresser Trio, performing his music for the French Surrealist film masterpiece of Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí, Un chien andalou as well as the German expressionist silent film classic, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.

The project was originally a collaboration between American animator Walt Disney and Spanish Surrealist painter Salvador Dalí, and features music written by Mexican songwriter Armando Dominguez and performed by Dora Luz.

Böcklin exercised an influence on Surrealist painters like Max Ernst and Salvador Dalí, and on Giorgio de Chirico.

She studied at the Slade School of Art in London, and later travelled to France to study the Surrealist masters, especially Salvador Dalí.

Surrealist painter Salvador Dalí also illustrated one edition of the book.

* June 6-Première of the Surrealist film Un Chien Andalou by Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí, in Paris.

* October-La galerie Goemans opens in Paris with a Surrealist exhibition featuring Jean Arp, Salvador Dalí, Yves Tanguy and René Magritte.

* 29 November-Première of the Surrealist film L ' Age d ' Or by Luis Buñuel ( co-written with Salvador Dalí ) at Studio 28 in Paris.

Both films were released before the epoch-making Un Chien Andalou ( 1929 ) by Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí, and La Coquille et le Clergyman is sometimes credited as the first Surrealist film ; however, some scholars, such as Ephraim Katz, consider Dulac first and foremost an Impressionist filmmaker.

Long after personal, political and professional tensions fragmented the Surrealist group, Magritte and Dalí continued to define a visual program in the arts.

In the same year, Dalí had important professional exhibitions and officially joined the Surrealist group in the Montparnasse quarter of Paris.

Dalí refused, perhaps out of fear of expulsion from the Surrealist group, and was violently thrown out of his paternal home on December 28, 1929.

While the majority of the Surrealist artists had become increasingly associated with leftist politics, Dalí maintained an ambiguous position on the subject of the proper relationship between politics and art.

Later in 1934, Dalí was subjected to a " trial ", in which he was formally expelled from the Surrealist group.

In 1936, Dalí took part in the London International Surrealist Exhibition.

The Surrealist movement and various members thereof ( such as Ted Joans ) would continue to issue extremely harsh polemics against Dalí until the time of his death, and beyond.
