This book examines the salient ideas and practices that have shaped
Surrealism as a protean intellectual and cultural concept that
fundamentally shifted our understanding of the nexus between art,
culture, and politics. By bringing a diverse set of artistic forms
and practices such as literature, manifestos, collage, photography,
film, fashion, display, and collecting into conversation with newly
emerging intellectual traditions (ethnography, modern science,
anthropology, and psychoanalysis), the essays in this volume reveal
Surrealism's enduring influence on contemporary thought and culture
alongside its anti-colonial political position and international
reach. Surrealism's fascination with novel forms of cultural
production and experimental methods contributed to its conceptual
malleability and temporal durability, making it one of the most
significant avant-garde movements of the twentieth century. The
book traces how Surrealism's urgent political and aesthetic
provocations have bequeathed an important legacy for recent
scholarly interest in thing theory, critical vitalism, new
materialism, ontology, and animal/human studies.
