Max Ernst’s vision of the modern world as irrational became the basis of his artwork. He mocked social conventions and highly criticized the western culture. Among the most famous of Ernst’s works are Celebes (1921), Here Everything is Still Floating (1920), Two Children Are Threatened by a Nightingale (1924), and The Fireside Angel (1937) among

They named him Hakadah- the pitiful last because he was the only one out of his 3 brothers and 1 sister, and his mother died shortly after his birth. She was the granddaughter of chief red cloud.

And heed my warning, a few years after my son disappeared, a wealthy attorney from Chicago, by the name of Wendell Gladfree, who was himself an adventur-ist, started petitioning the park fathers. Gladfree wanted them to release pertinent information about scores, I’m talking about scores of people who went missing in the park from 1920 to 1969. I met Gladfree myself and got to know him well.

Impactful across the globe, both Dada and Surrealism were artistic movements created in the early 20th century that were significant in redefining modern art today. The Dada movement came about in 1916 through the performance of Hugo Ball’s sound poem “Karawane” at the Cabaret Voltaire that he opened with his partner, nightclub singer Emmy Hennings, in Zurich, Switzerland.

Cathrin Klingsöhr-Leroy's Surrealism introduces us to dozens of creative visual artists who transformed the art world (and the world at large) with their mesmerizing paintings and sculptures. Along the way Klingsöhr-Leroy treats us to a veritable mini-history of Surrealism with a critical introduction that situates the movement with regard to Art History and History in general. Using Klingsöhr-Leroy's writings as my point of departure, I will, in these pages, seek to draw a connection between the work of the surrealists and the writing of Junichiro Tanizaki in The Key. One of Klingsöhr-Leroy's key theses is that surrealist artists sought to incorporate Sigmund Freud's theories on their splendid canvases; similarly, Tanizaki can be seen to reveal

He was an artist who broke the rules of painting. He was searching for inner meaning through his art. As well as using symbolic colors, he used animals as motifs to convey spirituality that humanity has slowly lost during his time of materialism and corruption. On February 8, 1880, Franz Marc was born in Munich.

The unconventional nature of surrealists can be traced back to this idea, and created a dividing line between some, as artists were accused of creating art to consciously. Max Ernst’s creation of the frottage, or rubbing quickly became popular with the surrealists because of how the unpredictability of it provoked the imagination. Unfortunately, others expanding on the same ideas of consciousness, were not as harmless as Ernst’s frottage, and used the idea of unpredictability as an excuse to avoid accountability.

Surrealism is a movement that built off of the burgeoning look into art, psychology, and the workings of the mind. Popularly associated with the works of Salvador Dali, Surrealist art takes imagery and ideology and creates correlation where there is none, creating new forms of art. In this essay I will look to explore the inception of the surrealist movement, including the Surrealist Manifesto, to stress the importance of these artists and their work in the 20th century and beyond. I also will look to films from our European Cinema course to express how films incorporate the influence of surrealism both intentionally and unintentionally.
Friedrich Froebel, a German educationalist, was born on April 21, 1782 in Oberweissbach, Germany. When he was only nine months old, his mother passed away. His father, a Lutheran pastor, remarried when Froebel was four years old. Unfortunately, Froebel had a very unhappy childhood and was neglected by his father and stepmother. He spent most of his childhood outside in gardens. Spending so much time outside led him to develop a love of nature, which later influenced his views on the way children should be educated.
