This was the "in crowd" of Paris in the 20s and early 30s: [Louis Aragon]?, [Marcel Duchamp]?, Rene Magritte, Miro, [Max Ernst]?, Dali, Giacometti, Valentine, Hugo, Oppenheim, [Man Ray]?, Tanguy, Prevert, Queneau, to name but a few).
The movement successively drifted left, adherence to the Moscow communist party line became a requirement, and Breton (who would later denounce that same party line) purged those who disagreed with him as the movement gradually splintered and drifted apart, only to reunite in exile in New York in the early forties during World War Two.
Although it is often falsely stated that surrealism ended either during or shortly after the Second World War, or with the death of Breton in 1966, the 1960s in fact saw a dramatic expansion of international surrealism, including the founding of the [Chicago Surrealist Group]? by Franklin? and [Penelope Rosemont]?. Surrealism continues today around much of the world.
