what puts the sur in surrealism?
what puts the super in super-reality?
pointing to something not seen:
the subconscious, the spiritual, the political, the chemical, the atomic?
techniques of surrealism: the non sequitur, juxtaposition,
they want you to apprehend contradictions
pointing to something not seen
like all art- treacherous images
from Aurignacian caves to Modern Minimalism.
they said they could strip it away
a naked neural impulse
the thing in itself
but somehow even a featureless black cube
connected to everything that it isn't
speaks to all the mass of the universe.
