I noticed one thing about my project on Surrealism--that all the artists I represented in my presentation were all basically deceased. That got me thinking. I wondered if there were any modern day Surrealist artists. I came across one that caught my attention for a few reasons. George Grie, an artist influenced by artists such as Salvador Dali (one of the most famous Surrealist artists), created quite interesting a beautiful neo Surrealist works of art. Some are dark and unusual and others seemingly based on fantasy worlds; all have a 3D effect (which reminded me of Project 5 in CAT 111). I was excited to see him creating such art and adding his own twist making his art truly original. I provided a couple examples (one image above and one image below). Enjoy!!

ReplyDeleteSo you were the one who beat me to picking surrealism! I was a little late, so I can't complain. I am also fascinated with it and it is my favorite type of art. I love the organic and dream like theme of it all: like an escape from reality.
