Surrealism is a type of art when artists create dreamlike paintings especially nightmares filled with mysterious objects that have been oddly changed in ways you couldn't see in reality. Salvador Dali is a famous Surrealist. "Un Chien Andalou" is a famous surrealist film created by Luis Bunuel.

Surrealism is truly just as it sounds. Surreal. Salvidore Dali was an excellent surrealist, creating fantasy elements in his art as a clock dripping off an edge or grosly distorted facial proportions. It is based in fantasy. Cameron was here 12.57pm 13/7/09

I'm assuming by surrealist you mean artists that paint/draw in that style. Surrealist art means you are portraying something like it is in a dream. Surrealists also use alot of symbolism. For instance, Salvador Dali's painting Melting Clocks is thought to be symbolizing how the artists feels like time is melting away.
