Question 20

Identify and describe the two types of Surrealism that developed.

Accepted Answer

The two types of Surrealism that developed are Automatism and Veristic Surrealism.

Automatism Surrealism is characterized by the spontaneous and automatic creation of art, often without conscious control or premeditation. Artists would allow their subconscious mind to guide their hand, creating works that were often abstract and dreamlike. This type of Surrealism was heavily influenced by the theories of Sigmund Freud and the exploration of the unconscious mind.

Veristic Surrealism, on the other hand, focused on creating realistic and detailed representations of dreamlike or fantastical scenes. Artists in this movement would carefully plan and execute their works, often incorporating precise details and intricate symbolism to convey their subconscious thoughts and emotions. This type of Surrealism was more concerned with the visual representation of the unconscious mind, rather than the spontaneous expression of it.
