Definition: Neo-Surrealism or Neosurrealism is the term that has been given to the reappearance of the famous surrealism movement in the late 1970s. Initially, the movement focused on relating surrealism with pop art, but lately, modern artists have been exploring other directions within the present movement. For a long time, Neosurrealism was called modern surrealism due to a noticeable visual similarity between these two movements. However, the main difference between the two styles is that Neosurrealism does not have the original idea of rational control freedom or psychic automatism declared by Andr Breton, in his Manifeste du surralisme.
Neosurrealism is combined imagery of dreams and fantasies or subconscious mind visions in fine art painting, digital art graphics, and photography. Modern computer technologies brought tons of additional depicting power to contemporary artists. Neosurrealism does not have a particular founder or group. The movement is still not clearly defined, but it develops rapidly adding more professional and amateur art enthusiasts every day. There are thousands of contemporary artists, digital and traditional fine art media, who create neo-surrealistic, surreal fantasy, and fantasy realism artworks comparable to Neosurrealism.
