The author traces the development of surrealism from its origins in the Dada anti-revolt of 1916-20 to the death of its guiding spirit, Andre Breton, in 1966 which marked the end of it as a formal entity. He discusses and illustrates a variety of surrealist artists, including not only giants of the movement, such as Dali, Miro, Ducham, Tanguy and Magritte, but a host of other remarkable artists.
