Unconscious Visions: Dreams on Paper

This September, Hidden Gallery proudly presents an extraordinary exhibition of original, hand-signed prints by four of the most influential pioneers of Surrealism: Joan Miró, Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, and Marc Chagall. Marking the 101st anniversary of the Surrealist Manifesto, the landmark publication that ignited one of the most important movements in modern art, this exceptional showcase brings museum-quality works on paper to the heart of Bristol. All artworks are available for purchase online or in the gallery, offering collectors and art enthusiasts the rare opportunity to acquire pieces by the masters themselves.

Printmaking played a central role in the practice of these artists, and this exhibition highlights their innovative techniques. Dalí famously fired musket-loaded snail shells filled with ink at his plates, while Miró embraced Surrealist automatism, creating compositions without conscious control. Among the works on view are 70-year-old lithographs by Chagall and a portfolio of Magritte prints signed by his wife Georgette, rare treasures seldom seen outside of major museum collections.
