- Handsome and collectible, the books each contain reproductions in color and/or duotone, plus a critical introduction and a bibliography.Paris in the early 1920s saw the growth of a new art form called surrealism. Both a formal movement and a spiritual orientation, surrealism embraced ethics and politics as well as the arts. Surrealists sought to create a medium that liberated the subconscious mind, and many artists and photographers captured this revolution through photographic images.
