Historical Design
Essay Plan
The title
chosen for this assignment will be ‘Surrealism: A design movement’
For this
assignment the design movement Surrealism will be discussed including topics
centred around the historical design including the history of surrealism, the
growth and population of the design and some of the key artists related to the
movement including one of the most famous artists Salvador Dalí.
I decided to
choose Surrealism as a basis for my essay for a couple of reasons. The main
reason for my choice is based on the fact that; out of all the design movements
I have learnt about and researched, Surrealism is the one that stands out to me
through its history and its artwork. The second and probably the main reason I
chose Surrealism as the basis for my essay was my interest and fascination with
surrealist art, more specifically the art of Salvador Dalí who is one of the
most famous surrealist artists. The ideas behind his paintings as well as his
personality have always intrigued me and by writing this essay I’m hoping to
find out more about his reasoning and ideas behind some of his most popular
paintings.
I will be
setting this essay out in the style of a report; I will give an introduction
into surrealism as a design movement and will then use several key sub-titles
to break up the report into different sections. The sub titles below will be a
rough guide to what the essay will be about and give a brief overview of the
layout of the assignment;
·
- Surrealism; A design movement
- The history of Surrealism
- The designs of Surrealism
- Key artists of Surrealism
- Salvador Dalí
- Conclusion
In order to
make this essay as personal as possible I will be searching for a number of key
research areas and materials to make sure I gather as much information as
possible rather than just using a generic information database such as
Wikipedia. I will be using a number of materials for my research such as
Surrealism websites and books from the library regarding the history of
surrealism as well as specialist books on Salvador Dalí and other key artists
in the movement.
