The pictures you have just looked at are by
Surrealist artists
They belong to the art movement called
Surrealism which began in the 1920s
Through their art they displayed their weird
and wonderful imagination
Ideas were heavily influenced by the subconscious
mind- dreams and nightmares
Many of the artists used photo realistic details
They often used the juxtaposition of unrelated
objects and backgrounds
