Honored for their idiosyncratic and imaginative works, the surrealists marked a pivotal moment in the history of modern art in Britain― pioneering the Surrealist movement between World War I and II. Many artists banded together to form the British Surrealist Group, while others carved their own, independent paths. Here, best-selling author and surrealist artist Desmond Morris―one of the last surviving members of this important art movement―draws on his personal memories and experiences to present the intriguing life stories, complex love lives, and groundbreaking works of this wild and curious set of artists.
