Prettiest, weirdest works I’ve seen from the surrealists in Session #10.

Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair by Frida Kahlo | The Leaf of the Artichoke Is an Owl by Arshile Gorky | Object - Meret Oppenheim | The Birth of the World by Joan Miró | The Song Of Love - Giorgio De Chirico

I never considered Kahlo a Surrealist, though she was of that era, but I do love her… Gorky doesn’t quite fit either. And where’s the Duchamp?

Kahlo didn’t consider herself a Surrealist either. But Andre Breton considered her a Surrealist and as such she was classified as one. At least according to MoMA. Same goes for Gorky.

Duchamp’s works are under “Dada” (session 9). I classified these works and artists under the MoMA lectures they came under.
