ART 224A - Surrealism: The Permanent Revolution

This class will explore the revolutionary politics and radical aesthetics of Surrealism - perhaps the most long-lived and resilient of all the Modernist traditions - in the context of contemporary art and culture. Using the various Manifestos of Surrealism as our primary texts, this studio course will allow students to produce contemporary Surrealist works in various media, and will explore the ways in which such works can be extended into social networks, both actual and virtual.

Prerequisite(s): None.
