Best Answer

He was one of the originators of Zürich Dada and in 1920 he initiated with other Dada artists the Cologne Dada group. In 1926 he moved to Meudon, a suburb of Pari, and started then to exhibit with the French Surrealism artists like Breton and Duchamp, Miro and Dali. In 1931 he broke with them.

- I did exhibitions with the Surrealists, because their attitude revolted against 'art' and their attitude toward life itself was wise, as was Dada's. (1929, art quotes, Hans / Jean Arp)

Why did surrealism start?

It was developed out of the activities of World War I & the most important center of the movement was Paris.'What they really needed according to the Surrealists, is not only the political revolution (from former DADA), but an all encompassing revolution of the spirit, that dares to break away from all acceptable morality and humanity in order to start again. But not by throwing all culture overboard like the expressionist artists did. The Surrealists did not condemn cultural life and intellect in general, but specifically the bourgeois culture and intellect.'a quote of the Dutch artist Jacob Bendien, who was then living in Paris and connected with some surrealist artists there.For more of his quotes on Surrealism, see the link.


How is surrealism different from other types of art?

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.
