This work was made by John Banting. It appraches surrealism in the history of contemporary European art from a different approach than the traditional one. In the work you can see an abstract figure, it's like a human body with a flamenco head .This figure wants to transmit the strength  in his arm. What is more striking is how the abstract thing draws our attention to the naked eye.
The colours used are blue, light red, black and  yellow.

He was considered a pioneer in what  he called  'rayographs' (he merged his name with the word “photograph” to describe his particular approach to the technique of making photograms. As old as photography itself, photograms are photographic prints made by placing objects and other elements on photosensitive paper and exposing it to light, without the use of a camera).

This artwork was created by Conroy Maddox in 1971. He was an English surrealist painter, collagist, writer and lecturer, and a key figure in the Birmingham Surrealist movement. He officially joined the British surrealist Group in 1938.
His creations began not only to challenge the conventional view of reality, but also to push pictorial expression to the limits of consciousness.
The painting is 29,9 x 23 cm and has used a mixed  technique on cardboard.
I think the author wants to express the importance of communication through the senses.

It’s a bronze, acrylic and metal sculpture. It dates back to 1980. The artist was Salvador Dali. The artwork represents a modern and surrealistic Venus. She doesn’t have a face, but it’s made by roses, creating an alienated effect. Her body is forced to support herself on a crutch. This is one of the most recurrent object in Dali’s artwork and it symbolises the hardness from the body and the softness from the unconscious.

This animal was considered a symbol of purity and it was believed that its horn could neutralize any poison.

John Banting was born in Chelsea in 1902. He made drawings and poems under the influence of Vorticism at the age of eighteen. He specialized in drawing with watercolor, painting, engraving and photography.
This  is an abstract work, drawn in various shapes and proportions. He wanted to represent a guitar with a face or something abstract. We can see how there is an eye-shaped sphere inside two joined triangles, along with two more shapes. Then in the third part there are in the central part two triangles joined by the central vertex and below this a circle as an important part of the guitar and on the sides stripes made like strings and in all this there is a box that surrounds them as their surface. The artist used warm colors to give fixation to the work such as brown, yellow and white.  Red stand out in the shape of a rhombus and green in the background.  But what stands out most  are the silhouettes and black lines that make and shape the picture.

This lithography was created in 1980 by Francis Bacon. It represents a human body mutilated and deformed.
He uses red as a background colour. This is a strong and intense colour used to project his figure, which has a cold and light colour.
The composition is a geometric and an abstract space. It produces dynamism although we only see one element in this painting, a human body mutilated, situated in the middle of the painting.
Bacon shows the perfection of the human body that dissapears and he tries to project his feelings, his suffering and his internal pain in his work.

This  sculpture was created by Dalí in 1984. It represents a weird view of a woman body. Dali tries to represent unconscious ideas, which has as a result a chaotic and delusional composition. So in his sculpture the woman body appears without head, arms and legs. We also find three elements constantly used in his work following Freud´s Theory and his own dreams:
-First, a melted clock over the woman body. He uses it to represent the importance of time.
-Second, the ants, to talk about death or sexual desire.
-And finally an egg, situated on the belly, to talk about love and life.
