Thesis Abstract



**Abstract
**
This research project explores the profound impact of psychoanalytic theory on the development and evolution of surrealist art during the 20th century. By examining key psychoanalytic concepts such as the unconscious, dreams, and free association, alongside prominent surrealist artworks and manifestos, this study aims to elucidate the ways in which psychoanalysis informed the creative processes and thematic concerns of surrealist artists. Through an interdisciplinary approach that integrates art history, psychology, and cultural studies, this research sheds light on the intricate relationship between the subconscious mind and artistic expression, offering insights into the enduring legacy of psychoanalytic theory within the realm of visual culture.
