Surrealist Figurative Paintings
SURREALIST STYLE
In the wake of World War I’s ravaging of Europe, artists delved into the unconscious mind to confront and grapple with this reality. Poet and critic André Breton, a leader of the Surrealist movement who authored the 1924 Surrealist Manifesto, called this approach “a violent reaction against the impoverishment and sterility of thought processes that resulted from centuries of rationalism.” Surrealist art emerged in the 1920s with dreamlike and uncanny imagery guided by a variety of techniques such as automatic drawing, which can be likened to a stream of consciousness, to channel psychological experiences.
Although Surrealism was a groundbreaking approach for European art, its practitioners were inspired by Indigenous art and ancient mysticism for reenvisioning how sculptures, paintings, prints, performance art and more could respond to the unsettled world around them.
Surrealist artists were also informed by the Dada movement, which originated in 1916 Zurich and embraced absurdity over the logic that had propelled modernity into violence. Some of the Surrealists had witnessed this firsthand, such as Max Ernst, who served in the trenches during World War I, and Salvador Dalí, whose otherworldly paintings and other work responded to the dawning civil war in Spain.
Other key artists associated with the revolutionary art and literary movement included Man Ray, Joan Miró, René Magritte, Yves Tanguy, Frida Kahlo and Meret Oppenheim, all of whom had a distinct perspective on reimagining reality and freeing the unconscious mind from the conventions and restrictions of rational thought. Pablo Picasso showed some of his works in “La Peinture Surréaliste” — the first collective exhibition of Surrealist painting — which opened at Paris’s Galerie Pierre in November of 1925. (Although Magritte is best known as one of the visual Surrealist movement’s most talented practitioners, his famous 1943 painting, The Fifth Season, can be interpreted as a formal break from Surrealism.)
The outbreak of World War II led many in the movement to flee Europe for the Americas, further spreading Surrealism abroad. Generations of modern and contemporary artists were subsequently influenced by the richly symbolic and unearthly imagery of Surrealism, from Joseph Cornell to Arshile Gorky.

Surrealist Gouache, 'Kerouac, Orlovsky and Burroughs, The Beat Generation'
Located in Cotignac, FR
A late 20th century watercolour and gouache on paper by British artist Derek Carruthers. Signed to the bottom right.
Carruthers at one period in his painting became quite interested in the classical period of Greek and Roman architecture.
He liked to juxtapose modern and classical images to show that although thousands of years may pass we remain the same with the same habits, hopes and desires. Here the artist is sending a postcard back in time. Classical nudes lay on rocks to the bottom of the image whilst people in the postcard are also similarly lying in the sun. The contrast that hits the viewer is the beauty of the sculptures compared to the figures on the beach. Have we lost something over the thousands of years for all our advancement and technology?
The postcard is annotated 'Jack Kerouac 35, William Burroughs 43, Tangier beach March-April... Ginsberg.'
In fact the postcard depicted in this painting is a painted version of a photograph taken on Tanger beach in 1957. Jack Kerouac is centre with Peter Orlovsky to his left and Burroughs lying on the sand watching to the right. At that time Jack Kerouac was helping Burroughs type up his novel 'Naked Lunch'. The photo was taken by Allen Ginsberg.
These three people were authors and founder members of the Beat...

"LOVE FIRST PIPE"
OIL ON CANVAS, SIGNED
CUBAN-AMERICAN, C.2006
20 X 16 INCHES
Yuri Martinez Ramos was born in Havana, Cuba on November 24, 1964.
He studied at the Elemental School of Plastic Arts from 1975 – 1979 and the National School of the Arts from 1979 – 1983.
Martinez’ figurative paintings have been compared to Botero because of his satirical social commentary. His style, however, is uniquely his own with typically vibrant Latin colors and use of expressive magical realism. His paintings tell his story and the story of the Cuban dilemma.
Martinez was granted permission by the US Justice Department after much effort with Cuban authorities to come to the US with his family and pursue his career outside Cuba. He now lives and works in Texas.
