they explored the realms of the unconscious and the instinctive. This book accompanies the exhibition Surreal on Paper at the SMK – National Gallery of Denmark in Copenhagen. The exhibition presents a wide-ranging collection of Surrealist works on paper by some of the movement’s key figures. A century on, we are invited to re-enter this unique world through a wealth of artworks and through the insights of four scholars who examine Surrealism’s relevance today and its intersections with gender, biology, nature, and the occult.
