Paul Éluard born Eugène Émile Paul Grindel was a French poet and one of the founders of the Surrealist movement.
In 1916, he chose the name Paul Éluard, a matronymic borrowed from his maternal grandmother. He adhered to Dadaism and became one of the pillars of Surrealism by opening the way to artistic action politically committed to the Communist Party.
During World War II, he was the author of several poems against Nazism that circulated clandestinely. He became known worldwide as The Poet of Freedom and is considered the most gifted of French surrealist poets.
Tout dire
Le tout est de tout dire, et je manque de mots
Et je manque de temps, et je manque d΄audace
Je rêve et je dévide au hasard mes images
J΄ai mal vécu, et mal appris à parler clair.
Tout dire les roches, la route et les pavés
Les rues et leurs passants les champs et les bergers
Le duvet du printemps la rouille de l΄hiver
Le froid et la chaleur composant un seul fruit
Je veux montrer la foule et chaque homme en détail
Avec ce qui l΄anime et qui le désespère
Et sous ses saisons d΄homme tout ce qui l΄éclaire
Son espoir et son sang son histoire et sa peine
Je veux montrer la foule immense divisée
La foule cloisonnée comme un cimetière
Et la foule plus forte que son ombre impure
Ayant rompu ses murs ayant vaincu ses maîtres
La famille des mains, la famille des feuilles
Et l΄animal errant sans personnalité
Le fleuve et la rosée fécondants et fertiles
La justice debout le pouvoir bien planté
Pouvoir Tout Dire (1951)

My Top 5 Painters 5/5 - Mariusz Lewdanowski They are characterized by an impressive play of light, color, space and contrast. Although the artist titles his paintings, he does not explain their meaning. Thanks to that, you can let your imagination run free, immersing yourself in a reality so different from the one we deal with every day.

https://archive.org/details/surrealist-sabotage-and-the-war-on-work
In Surrealist sabotage and the war on work, art historian Abigail Susik uncovers the expansive parameters of the international surrealist movement’s ongoing engagement with an aesthetics of sabotage between the 1920s and the 1970s, demonstrating how surrealists unceasingly sought to transform the work of art into a form of unmanageable anti-work. In four case studies devoted to surrealism’s transatlantic war on work, Susik analyses how artworks and texts by Man Ray, André Breton, Simone Breton, André Thirion, Óscar Domínguez, Konrad Klapheck, and the Chicago surrealists, among others, were pivotally impacted by the intransigent surrealist concepts of principled work refusal, permanent strike, and autonomous pleasure. Underscoring surrealism’s profound relevance for readers engaged in ongoing debates about gendered labour and the wage gap, endemic over-work and exploitation, and the vicissitudes of knowledge work and the gig economy, Surrealist sabotage and the war on work reveals that surrealism’s creative work refusal retains immense relevance in our wired world.

People utilizing the power of AI to press a button and generate liminal space images via stolen art and photography in 2020: this has never been done before Im so smart (not true)
People utilizing the power of the subconscious mind to capture shadows as light on a page and smash a found object lobster and a broken phone together in 1900: this has never been done before Im so smart (kinda true)

At top below are 9 members of the Surrealist movement. The photo was taken around 1933 in Paris, France. Lt - Rt they are: Tristan Tzara, Paul Eluard, Andre Breton, Jean Rap, Salvador Dali, Yves Tanguy, Max Ernst, Rene Crevel, and Man Ray. Below are some of the gentlemen that would power the major post-Derleth, H. P. Lovecraft scholarship movement beginning in the early 70s. Their names are listed in a previous Exhibit, but the importance to the serious investigation of Lovecraft's works and life by these individuals cannot be overstated. One has to wonder if the similarities of the later photo's composition was in answer to the older? (Exhibit 306)

My Top 5 Painters 2/5 - Yves Tanguy
Tanguy's paintings have a unique, immediately recognizable style of nonrepresentational surrealism. They show vast, abstract landscapes, mostly in a tightly limited palette of colors, only occasionally showing flashes of contrasting color accents. Typically, these alien landscapes are populated with various abstract shapes, sometimes angular and sharp as shards of glass, sometimes with an intriguingly organic look to them, like giant amoebae suddenly turned to stone
