what is the difference between surrealism art and symbolism art?

Answer 1

Surrealism art:
"It was an artistic movement that brought together artists, thinkers and researchers in hunt of sense of expression of the unconscious. They were searching for the definition of new aesthetic, new humankind and a new social order."

Symbolism art:

"Symbolism in art represents an outgrowth of the more gothic and darker sides of Romanticism; but where Romanticism was impetuous and rebellious, Symbolist art was static and hieratic."

Hope this helps.
