    Surrealism is an art style that combines unexpected images. René Magritte painted realistic scenes of everyday objects in bizarre contexts. He transformed familiar figures in many ways, such as making them float, turn to stone, grow wings, multiply, become invisible, or break apart. The document provides examples of surrealist works by Magritte and other artists like Salvador Dalí and Man Ray that demonstrate morphing, levitation, dislocation, transparency, and the reversal of natural law. Students are instructed to create a collage using these surrealist techniques with their own photos.
