The bizarre and often humorous creations of Reneacute; Magritte; Joan Miroacute;; Salvador Daliacute;; and other surrealists are showcased in this activity guide for young artists. Foremost among the surrealists; Salvador Daliacute; was a painter; filmmaker; designer; performance artist; and eccentric self-promoter. His famous icons; including the melting watches; double images; and everyday objects set in odd contexts; helped to define the way people view reality and encourage children to view the world in new ways. Daliacute;rsquo;s controversial life is explored while children trace the roots of some familiar modern images. These wild and wonderful activities include making Man Ray–inspired solar prints; filming a Dali-esque dreamscape video; writing surrealist poetry; making collages; and assembling art with found objects.

The articles are always interesting. Well worth buying all of the series.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Nice half of a book as usual!By E. VasiliouAll of these series books have nice great pictures in the first half or so of the pages then page after useless page of phone book style listings of maker after maker. This info would be better put on a single "source" web page and be more up to date as well! BUT then this book would look more like a magazine than a book. You see this black and white w/little to no photos in the back of the book is cheap filler to make your magazine look like a book. we all did it in school. you know triple spacing. redundant verbage. etc. I still like these books simply because I buy them a year old and get them for magazine prices. To see one new knife design makes it worth the price.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Jay Millerthanks
