A few highlights from the Surrealism Without Borders exhibition at Tate Modern, which has an inspiring premise (‘Hey kids, Surrealism wasn’t just a bunch of French dudes doing lots of wobbly anthropomorphic stuff, there were people all round the world doing their own Surrealisms’) and starts off well, but as it goes on it increasingly becomes a lot of people from round the world doing wobbly anthropomorphic stuff just like that bunch of French dudes, and so kinda shoots itself in the foot. Maybe there wasn’t sufficient work available to fully support the thesis, but I suspect it’s more that too narrow an interpretation of Surrealism and its potential methods of deployment was used. Anyway, despite all that it’s still worth seeing and I’m glad I went.
