SURREALISM AT NGV

In 1924, André Breton published his Manifeste du Surréalisme (Surrealist Manifesto), launching the birth of one of the twentieth century’s most significant and well-known art movements. Marking the 100-year anniversary of this manifesto, the NGV is celebrating the impact and ongoing legacy of Surrealism with a new online course and a live lecture.

Read more about the Surrealists from page 50 in your Jul–Aug 24 NGV Magazine.
