    Straub, Anne. "Ruth Funk". Ornament. 2009. 33:1. 56-61. Anne Straub focuses on designer Ruth Funk who brings styles from the '70s into today's fashions.

  •  
    Cowling, Elizabeth. "`PROUDLY WE CLAIM HIM AS ONE OF US': BRETON, PICASSO, AND THE SURREALIST MOVEMENT." Art History 8.1 (1985): 82-104. Academic Search Complete. EBSCO. Web. 18 Nov. 2010. This article talks about Berton's Manifesto and how he tried to improve and expand the movement. One way he tried to do this was by claiming Pablo Picasso as a Surrealist painter. The writing is very detailed and descriptive about the two artists and their ties with Surrealism. It is a long article but it provides quality information. This is a good article because it addresses the parameters of the Surrealist Movement.
