His mental problems started to occur when he was in his 30's. I really like this article because it gives an outline of all of Van Gogh's health problems and the time period in which they occurred.

Introduction to the Artistic Style of Surrealism - 1 views

  •  
    "Introduction to the Artistic Style of Surrealism." ArtHistory.net. Web 9 Nov. 2010. This article discusses how Surrealism has progressed and captured Modern imagination and Art. Surrealism started from the work and culture of Salvador Dali. Other surrealists, such as Andre Breton, wanted to explore further through literature, poetry, and the human mind. Breton described wrote a novel and described Surrealism as "those two seemingly contradictory states, dream and reality, into a sort of absolute reality, of surreality." One of the main reason why Surrealism grew and has effected contemporary art is because it has captured attention in numerous countries such as Europe, the United States, South America, and Mexico. It brought a sense of excitement for artists because it broadened the typical view of life as we know it. It allowed artists to create works in which they only dreamed about. Another surrealist artist, Kahlo, was very passionate about her work. An example of her work was an image of herself in a hospital bed as a victim with glaring objects hovering over her. She wanted to show viewers the sad nature of hopelessness. Kahlo was a large influence for the Surrealist movement.
