Surrealism didn't take (Part I of II)
Despite it’s enormous popularity in Europe in the WWII epoch, surrealism never experienced widespread acceptance in Norway during this period. Surrealist artists found little success on the Norwegian market and encountered apathy among Norwegian audiences. Why did Norway resist an ideological movement that emphasized breaking from the arbitrary boundaries of perception and reality in preference of a more traditional perspective on the times? Why, in such turbulent times, did Norway turn its gaze inwards rather than embrace a philosophy that emphasized an externalization of the inward gaze?

Surrealism didn't take (Part II of II)
Norway, with its unique and insulated nationalism, rejected the notion of order without reason that other disillusioned countries had seized upon as their only solace. Beneath the grim reality of rationing, war, and occupation lay a deep seated optimism about the future of the Norwegian people. Spared the atrocities of the first world war and equipped with the newfound pride of fleeting independence, Norwegians found little of value in an art form that did not fit snugly into a framework of nationalistic triumph. Surrealism just didn't take.
