Literary and artistic movement enjoying another golden age, with international events and exhibitions

The cultural movement led by the French writer and poet André Breton would give rise to artists of international renown including Max Ernst, Joan Miró, René Magritte, Yves Tanguy, and Salvador Dalí.
