Research Abstract |
In France from the 1920s through the 1930s, the discovery of the theory of relativity of Albert Einstein or the quantum mechanics of Werner Heisenberg became a target of a prosperous argument among some avant-garde artists. This study examined the reception of these "scientific discourse" in writers and artists of the Surrealism. We examined the process of the creation act of the literature and art with concrete examples.
