Quotations ; Andre Breton, French
writer, poet, and Surrealist theoretician

+
Artistic imagination must remain free. It is by definition free from
any fidelity to
circumstances, especially to the intoxicating
circumstances of history.
+ The approval of
the public must be avoided above all. The public must be
forbidden to enter if confusion is to be
avoided.
+ The mind
which plunges into Surrealism, relives with burning
excitement the best part of childhood.
+ I could
spend my whole life prying loose the secrets of the insane.
These people are honest to a fault, and their
naivety has no peer but my own.
Now you have an idea what got us
started,
as Breton utilized the
theories in
Freuds "Interpretation of
Dreams"
to begin a new movement
in art, with a "capitol S";
SURREALISM
Freud studied the theory and
machinations,
the Surrealists studied the
MIASMA

background of the film Haunted Artists and how
it came to be
