Surrealist Postcards Exchange

Oooh, if I can get my hands on some post cards next week I am totally in on this!

Excellent swap! I'm in for sure. For those who would like to see some surrealist art on postcards, check out the website at: www.changingworld.com Some of the postcards there include Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, Max Ernst, Frida Kahlo, melting clocks, dreams, and all sorts of strange and wild postcards which could be considered surreal or not. Depending. Even one with a definition of Surrealism.
You can use the advanced search engine on the website to seek out just the cards you are looking for. This swap could encourage the addition of more surreal postcards!

Surrealism defined on a Postcard? Here is what it says: Surrealism n. 1. the youthful expression of dreamlike spontaneity which daily life conspires to suppress. 2. a state of mind embracing unconscious, poetic juxtaposition which is eroded by responsibility. 3. You pursue the terrible beauties of fear and hope. Your friends cannot help you. [That's it!] You gotta see this card. The words float on a wet, blue background. Yes, definitions of surrealism can be slippery, like a dream.

can it be handmade?

rugilla: for this exchange the cards are store bought but if you have any problem write a message to your partners telling your situation. I opened the second round of this exchange and we will send a handmade card this time!
