Objects of Desire. Surrealism and Design

A must-have for art and design enthusiasts. Objects of Desire delves into the influence of Surrealism on design over the past century.

Surrealism expanded our reality by drawing upon myths, dreams, and the subconscious as sources of artistic inspiration. Beginning in the 1930s, the movement made a significant impact on design—and it continues to inspire designers to this day.

Published by Vitra Design Museum, Objects of Desire is the first book to thoroughly examine this fascinating interplay. It includes numerous essays and more than 400 carefully curated images.
