- There are many ways to solve a problem
- If you are creative, you will discover all these ways including the less obvious ones
Surrealist techniques and games :
free of consious control
surrealism uses many techniques and games said to fee the imagination
your mind will limit you, if you let it become too rational
promote thought that is spontaneous
reveal psyche, consciousness
automatism: remains primal importance - do things automatically, without thought, improvised
means of subconscious, free of rational control
hand freely moves around paper
André Breton and Supot: wrote books on automatism
Paul Emile Bourdeouis, Jean Paul Riopelle : Defining figure of Montreal art scene. Under authoritarian rule (rigid society)
signed Manifesto
surrealistic painting used completely non artist procedure
express somebody's deep personality but they want to that that away
Techniques:
Entropic graphomania: dots are make on sides of impurity
took out artists out of art, instead scientific techniques
Collage: assembling of different elements to create a whole
art form of novelty
Cubomania: randomly putting images together
Etricessment: visual poetry, cutting off pieces of image to create new image
Decalcomania: spreading paint on canvas, putting paper on it while it's still wet to create a starting point
Fumato: put matches on canvas, light them up
Involuntary sculpture: absent-mindedly manipulating something
Latent news: news is cut out and stuck back together
Games
not only form of recreation...
method of investigation
goal is to make unique outcomes
exquisite corps : images and words put together fold paper give it to other person
collective artwork- see it as experiment, author's name is irrelevant
