Surrealism

Surreal basically means unexplainable or different, it is made from super-realistic even though the things it is used for are usually so odd and strange they are almost the opposite.
It became more of a productive movement between the first and second world wars, like dada however, surrealism did have a few more rules and principles to follow. Dada was born from the negative emotions gathered from WW1, it started from a group of artists and poets associated with the Cabaret Voltaire in Zurich. some believe the name is Russia's meaning of 'yes' da da, 'да да' would mean yes yes
another theory from wikipedia would be 'that the name "Dada" came during a meeting of the group when a paper knife stuck into a French-German dictionary happened to point to 'dada', a French word for 'hobbyhorse'

super realism truth beyond the real

Alfred Jarry

Alfred Jarry was a talented writer slightly before the estimated date of the surreal movement in1920, but still managing to be relevant thanks to his symbolist work between 1873-1907.
Perhaps his most recognisable piece was Ubu Roi, which is described as 'absurd' at the time because such act of random humour had never been preformed in an open theatre before, shortly after the play had been preformed it was not or revisited until after Jarrys death. Even so the play had brought fame to the 23 year old, and with time he became his creation, speaking in the odd ways of ubu, for example he would speak of the wind as 'that which blows' and his bicycle 'that which rolls'.
