Exploring the Unknown: Surrealism in American Art illustrates the profound influence of Surrealism on American art during the 1930s and 1940s. The works included in this exhibition will exemplify the two distinct veins of Surrealism: the representational, dreamlike imagery of artists like Federico Castellon, Alfonso Ossorio and Dorothea Tanning and the abstract, biomorphic imagery that emerged from the technique of automatism represented by artists like Boris Margo, William Baziotes and Charles Seliger.
