Surrealism was possibly the defining art movement between the two world wars. It was started by Andre Breton in c1920 and was borne out of Dadaism. Dada was a form of anti-art that deliberately defied reason. Dadaism was also aimed at negation, whereas the surrealist movement aimed to be a more positive expressive art form. Initially it consisted of a series of journals and poetry. Both Surrealism and Dadaism were different to other art movements as they were making a mockery type of buffoonery to every other type of art form, Surrealism is bizarre state of art as it shows un-imaginable artworks to be conducted, things from dreams, nightmares and images from the subconscious.
