Surreal Stuff

Expanding upon Forbidden Games, the fascinating surrealist art exhibit that just opened at the Cleveland Museum of Art, today’s lecture — From Cleveland to Cleveland via Paris: Surrealist Photography and the City — offers a unique look at the history of surrealist photography and Cleveland’s role in the movement. British photo-historian Ian Walker (who helped assemble the exhibition) will examine ways in which surrealist artists captured the city of Paris while also explaining the Cleveland connection. The lecture starts at 11 a.m. in the Recital Hall and is free. (Trenholme)
