We sleep. Images appear in our mind’s eye. Scenes and sensations are seen, heard, felt: dreams, a creation of sleep. The unconscious speaks in symbols – as does art. Dreams and art open up transcendent spaces of healing.

Celebrating the centenary of André Breton’s 1924 Manifesto of Surrealism and inspired by his Dream Object, the exhibition leads you through a long corridor to multiple “compartments” of the unconscious. These rooms echo the complexity of the human mind and the multifaceted nature of thoughts, emotions, and memories. We invite you to shift consciousness and immerse yourself in the transformative power of art.

1130 square meters, 17 rooms, 180 works.
