Surrealism: Surrealism was a cultural movement that developed in the 1920's out of the Dada activities of the World War I era. The aim of the movement was to supplement the painting of reality by adding an element of dreams. The result is a series of impossible or illogical paintings depicting strange creature made from objects, as well as other mind-boggling pieces. Dali even referred to some of his surrealist paintings as "hand-painted dream photographs."

Cubism: Cubism was part of an art revolution in the early 20th century that began sometime between 1907 and 1911 in Europe. During this period, Pablo Picasso, George Braque, and Gertrude Stein all created pieces with cubist elements, although Picasso is generally credited with the creation of Cubism. This style of painting, as the name suggests, features rigid shapes and lines, generally in an imposing manner.

Dada: Dada (or Dadaism) was an international movement that occurred in both Europe and North America. Many attribute the outbreak of Dada to the discontent that came along with World War I. The paintings from the Dada era generally defy logic and reason as a form of rebellion to the logic that led to World War I. Dada is, in general, a rebellion to the bourgeois nationalist ideals that contributed to the war.
