Dada (1914-20’S)and Surrealism Andre Breton, 1924 “Surrealism … (is) pure psychic automatism …. Thought in the absence of all control exerted by reason, and outside all aesthetic or moral preoccupations … based on the belief in the superior reality of certain forms of associations heretofore neglected, in the omnipotence of the dream and the disinterested play of thought.” “Surreality (is) the reconciliation of the reality of dreams with the reality of everyday life into a higher Synthesis.” Expressions of the Unconscious: Chance Play Automatisms (Freud, Jokes and their Relation to the Unconscious, 1911)
