// Joan Brossa's Poema visual 5 (1989) is a lithograph that reflects the artist's unique approach to visual poetry and conceptual art. Dominated by a large, bold letter A in black, the composition features a small silhouette on the left, depicting a figure with an elaborate, feathered hat and a staff, contrasting sharply with the simplicity of the letterform. Brossa, known for blending language and imagery, plays with symbols to challenge viewers' associations and perceptions. The juxtaposition of the monumental letter and the diminutive, detailed figure introduces a dialogue between language and visual form, invoking questions about power, identity, and the function of symbols in communication.

What is Surrealism?
Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
