Reacting to the atrocities of World War I, artists and poets began referencing the random and imaginary in a distinct rejection of logic and formal conventions. The writings of psychologist Sigmund Freud further influenced the Surrealist belief that creativity originating from deep within a person’s subconscious could potentially be far more powerful and authentic than any product of conscious thought. 清醒梦presents the work of two local San Diego artists, Alexia Markarian and Barbara Sexton, mounted alongside a diverse selection of works by early 20^th 世纪大师和圣地亚哥梅萨学院非洲艺术收藏的几件作品。
