Abstract

Surrealism is an important art school after the first World War. It is famous for its absurdity and rebellion against the real society. As surrealism is greatly influenced by Freud’s psychoanalysis and Jung’s neo-psychoanalysis in psychology, this paper analyzes the paintings of surrealist painter Remedios Varo from jung’s subconscious and archetype theories. The surrealism style in Remedios Varo’s paintings is revealed from the theory of the unconscious. And through studying the Animus archetype and the personality mask archetype in Remedios Varo’s paintings, this paper reveals brave, independent, intelligent and rebelling traits of female images.
