Best Answer

The writer of the Surrealist Manifesto was the charismatic French author and poet Andre Breton, who also subsequently started the Surrealist group of avantgarde artists and writers including figures such as Salvador Dali, Eileen Agar, Paul Edouard, Gala Edouard, Max Ernst, Joan Miro and others. The group produced art based on the ideas advocated in the Surrealist Manifesto, thereby initiating the Surrealist Movement, "that sleeping beauty haunted with nightmares" in the words of Agar, which stormed across Europe with its fantastical and cauchemar-like depictions echoing Freudian psychoanalysis and the belief in the fundamental irrationality and animalism of minds and the world. Subsequently, many of these figures departed from the movement, and produced further art in response or criticism to it. A good example is Dali's collection, "Fourteen years after Surealism," shown in the Salvador Dali gallery on the Thames Water Path, London.
