| Abstract | Surrealism was an important avenue for anti-colonial thought at the beginning of the twentieth century in French culture. Such a proposition goes against common assumptions of how surrealism is understood today. A typical view of surrealism in contemporary Anglo-American culture regards it as the antics of a group of sexist young men totally preoccupied with their own chaotic internal thoughts who were the initiators of scandalous asocial activities. Accounts of historical surrealism have become a caricature and, even in a sociology of art interested in the European avant-garde, surrealism is described as doing not much more than creating a ‘shock’ to other members of its petty bourgeois class and a frisson of excitement for a bored native bourgeoisie. |
