What inspiration does surrealist sculpture get from Dada artists?

Before and after World War I, Dadaism artists became more active in the art field. They denied the traditional definition of art with a position close to nihilism, and broke the boundary between art and life and non-art. This radical position inspired the artists in the sculpture field to go further, deviate from the traditional concept of sculpture form, explore with various materials more freely in an open form, and break through various boundaries in the spiritual connotation of sculpture, which can not only express everything in reality, but also express people with sculpture.

Duchamp, a Dadaist artist, exhibited ordinary objects in daily life as works of art. He created "Bottle Rack" at 19 14, which challenged the traditional aesthetic concept of sculpture. Surrealist sculptors directly inherited Duchamp's thoughts, but they were not as radical as Duchamp. They still insist on sculpture creation and only use ready-made products in their works. Inspired by Freud's psychoanalytic theory, surrealist artists are determined to explore the unconscious and irrational spiritual world of human beings. They are good at combining discordant parts and creating some new forms that are chaotic and can't be classified, but such works can arouse people's rich associations, which is the greatest charm of this art.
