Man Ray, Buñuel, Dalí – Surrealist Cinema | SPECIAL (DE/EN)

Some of the milestones of film history were created by Surrealist artists like Man Ray, Luis Buñuel, and Salvador Dalí. Apart from the dream worlds, obsessions, and chance encounters one would expect from a Surrealist director, their cinematic works also feature path-breaking visual experiments. Following an introduction by assistant curator Tanja Cunz, we will screen Surrealism’s most important films. Although cinemagoers can look forward to popcorn and comfortable lounge chairs, the evening is unlikely to get too cosy: Surrealist films were made to shock and perturb, using an entirely new approach to narration.

Free admission, registration: events@design-museum.de
