Surrealism
Surrealism sculpture is a type of art that combines found objects or other unique items in unexpected ways to create a dreamlike effect. The goal of Surrealist art is to access the unconscious mind and combine fantasy with everyday life. Surrealist sculptures often feature unlikely juxtapositions of objects, and can be categorized into two main types:
- Biomorph: Abstracted shapes and forms that are created through organic associations
- Objet trouvé: Compositions of random items that are chosen without strategy
- The Enigma of Isidore Ducasse: A sewing machine wrapped in an army blanket and tied with a string
- Why Not Sneeze Rose Sélavy? A birdcage filled with marble cubes that look like sugar lumps
- Object: A teacup covered with Chinese gazelle pelt
Surrealism originated in Paris, France in the 1920s and 1930s. The movement’s leader, André Breton, believed that Surrealist art could tap into the subconscious mind and puncture the thin veneer of reality

AcrylicThe 4 Horses of Apocalypse by Anthony Heywood
£23,400 inc VATOne of The Sculpture Park’s most loved sculptures.
This thought-provoking work is created from nostalgic artefacts of days gone by. Typewriters, plastic toys and TV screens have all stood the test of time, bound together into this meaningful sculpture.
A serious message underlines the work; by recreating the form of the steeds of the mythical ‘Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse’ and removing their human riders, a vision of a possible future; pollution overrunning the earth, is presented.
Artist Anthony Heywood’s approach to making sculptures was to draw upon art history as well as contemporary culture and political events. He sadly passed away in April 2022 but we are proud to be able to carry on exhibiting his Four Horses to inspire visitors to our sculpture park in Churt, Farnham, Surrey. -
