Surrealism Beyond Borders
11 Oct 2021 — 29 Aug 2022 at Metropolitan Museum of Art
· New York City
Surrealism Beyond Borders was a major exhibition co-organized by the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Tate Modern, on view in 2021–2022.

The exhibition was first presented at the Met in New York before traveling to Tate Modern in London, bringing together works that demonstrated how Surrealist ideas were adopted, transformed, and reinvented by artists around the world.
