Description

Dada and Surrealism are two of the most important movements of modern art. This book provides a succinct, digestible account of them in historical terms, but also explains why they are important in wider cultural terms. The author's perspective is very much a contemporary one, looking at how these great movements have relevance for us today. Themes of contemporary interest such as gender and identity politics are given particular prominence in this lively introduction.
