To combat the rise to fascism & purity culture. I want everyone who sees this to take up to 10 minutes and write the most messed up poem, micro fiction or draw the most unhinged doodle or put together a truly absurd collage with what you have on hand.

Don’t censor yourself. You might feel it happening. Like this invisible critic keeping you from going too far, being too strange. Keeping you boxed into what’s acceptable, morally correct.

& just keep practicing - until you can shake that little morality police free.

And for bonus points spend some time getting to know surrealist artists and activists who were doing this during the rise of fascism in the 1930s

And if surrealism isn’t your style- if it’s too serious & you like things a little more absurd check out Dada

Move aside, peasants, it’s 💫🪞Gilderoy Lockheart 🪞💫

This man has a God Complex like no other and I really really loathe him, but you gotta applaud his self confidence 💅🏻✨

He’s a self-made man, is what he would tell you😌 But we know the truth… *cough CONMAN cough* Excuse me, I choked on some bullshit.

This man was fun to draw. Dressed to the max from head to toe, hair carefully curled to perfection, teeth as shiny as pearls 😊 A fashion icon, even if he is a fraud.

It’s Professor Lockheart!

SURREALISM 👁️ love, ur local art mom 🩵

disclaimers and more information under the cut ✂️

hi I’m annemarie and I’m an art historian! not adjuncting for the first time in five years was rly hard for me so I threw some slides together so I could still (sort of) teach the same material as my language of art class but a) I threw these slides together for instagram so space was/is limited and b) language of art is a ten week run through art history so I’m presenting only the most accessible information here – there’s so much more to this art period and to these artists! – please don’t expect it to be comprehensive and please do ask if you have any questions!

oh p.s. my first ever class of art history students came up with the name ‘art mom’ for me at the end of the quarter and yes it does make me cry if I think about it too long thanks so much for asking
