What is Synectic art?
• Synectic (si-nek'tik): a. [LL. synecticus;Gk. synectikos, bringing forth together; holding together.] 1. Bringing different things into real connection.
(From Century Dictionary)
• Synectic: The synthesis of disparities; producing unified or cohesive structures and ideas from seemingly incompatible elements.
(From Art Synectics by Nicholas Roukes)
What is Surrealism?According to the major spokesman of the Surrealist Movement, the poet and critic André Breton, who published The Surrealist Manifesto in 1924, Surrealism was a means of reuniting conscious and unconscious realms of experience so completely that the world of dream and fantasy would be joined to the everyday rational world in "an absolute reality, a surreality.”

Examples of art from the Surrealist period• The two major Surrealist artists were Salvador Dali
and René Magritte. In the next few slides you will see examples of their artwork.
• See if you can tell how their artwork follows The Surrealist Manifesto by "reuniting conscious and unconscious realms of experience so completely that the world of dream and fantasy [is] joined to the everyday rational world in 'an absolute reality, a surreality.'"
