 André Masson
André Masson is one of the key figures of the Surrealist movement.
Like many of his generation, Masson fought in the first World War and was seriously wounded; the experience made him quite pessimistic about the possibilities of a life ruled by reason and inclined him towards the irrational.
He joined the Surrealists in 1922 (a time when he and Miró were sharing a studio because neither could afford to rent their own) and left in 1929, when, like many others, Breton's domination of the movement proved too much to take.

 Exhibition: André Masson Inside/Outside Surrealism
The prints and illustrated books of André Masson (1896 to1987) are central to an understanding of the early history of Surrealism.
The exhibition represents three major periods of Masson’s career: the earliest, from 1924 to the mid 1930s, when Masson developed his automatic drawing style and vocabulary of images; his American period, from the early 1940s; and his quasi-Impressionist and Eastern influences, from 1949 to 1974.
The 93 works by André Masson include prints, illustrated books, an important oil painting, an ink drawing (from the AGO collection) and a watercolour.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Andre-Hercule de Fleury
But, in truth, Fleury was simply anticipating the policy of the renversement des alliances (breaking up of the alliances), which began in 1756, and which by uniting France and Austria was to be more in conformity with the Catholic traditions of both countries.
The opinions of historians like Vandal and Masson with regard to this renversement des alliances, so long the object of criticism, tends to justify Cardinal Fleury.
During the period of Fleury's power, Jansenism was gaining ground among the masses as a superstitious sect, as is evidenced by the miracles of the deacon Pâris, while among the upper classes it took shape as a political faction.

As Dada was a negative response to the First World War, surrealism possesses a more positive view that the world can be changed and transformed into a fertile crescent of freedom, love, and poetry.

Along with such men as Alfred Flechtheim, Paul Cassirer, and Daniel Wildenstein, Kahnweiler was one of the most extraordinary and unique art connoisseurs of the 20th century.
Rather than exhibiting the popular works of the past and present greats, Kahnweiler championed burgeoning artists such as Andr‚ Derain, Alberto Giacometti, and others, who had come from all over the globe to live and work in Montparnasse at the time.
Kahnweiler gave the first exhibition of the work of Georges Braque, and soon he expanded his presentations by bringing together artists, writers and poets to produce their works as a joint project in more than 40 books.
