In the Gallery 2001 are some Surrealist objects created for the class by the class--Magical Realism, 2001.  The challenge was to create, in the manner of the Surrealists, juxtapositions of wildly dissimilar things in order to create a third reality, a surreality--as in Lautremont's description of the chance meeting of the parasol and the sewing machine on the operating table.

An additional option was the negation of the regular, what the Russian formalists called "defamiliarization."  Some good examples are Man Ray's "The Gift," a flatiron studded with nails and Meret Oppenheimer's "Object," which was a fur-lined teacup.
