The Baltimore Museum of Art has gathered together a bunch of masterpieces for its new show, including a few by the great surrealist painter Rene Magritte (one of the subjects of the photograph that inspired the beautiful Paul Simon song that opens this segment, Rene and Georgette Magritte with Their Dog After the War). There are also works by Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso, Max Ernst, Joan Miro Mark Rothko, and more.The BMA's new show is called Monsters and Myths: Surrealism and War in the 1930s and 1940s. Oliver Shell is Associate Curator of European Painting and Sculpture at the BMA. He is co-curating this terrific exhibition, and he joins Tom in Studio A to discuss the show's compelling theme: the powerful impact of war and its horrors on a generation of international painters, sculptors and filmmakers.
