Surrealism in Paris

Surrealism in Paris, Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Brussels, Belgium

From 16 March to 15 July 2012 the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium organises, in collaboration with the Fondation Beyeler in Basel, an exhibition on ´Surrealism in Paris´. On display will be major works by all the leading artists of this movement.  Together, they provide an important overview of some of the most famous artists of the twentieth century: Hans Arp, Hans Bellmer, Salvador Dalí, Giorgio de Chirico, Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, Alberto Giacometti, René Magritte, Man Ray, André Masson, Joan Miró, Meret Oppenheim, Francis Picabia, Pablo Picasso and Yves Tanguy.

The core of the exhibition consists of paintings, sculptures and works on paper but, because the Surrealists challenged the traditional classification of artistic disciplines, composite objects, photographs and assemblages will also be shown.
