Surrealism and Photomontage

Surrealism is creating a world or image which goes beyond the physical world. It shows something which would be impossible in real life or tampers with the line defining what is real and what is imaginary.

Here are a couple famous artists that influenced the Surrealist movement.

Dali Atomicus by Philippe Halsman 

Wig Stall by Nigel Henderson


Here are photos I think show a surrealist bent in their imagery
