Chimeras and Dreams as Reality : Symbolism in Visual Arts at the Dawn of the 20th Century 

In this talk we will be discussing how in late 19th century Europe, illusions, chimeras, dreams and ideas became a new proposal of looking at the world. Illusion becomes a new idea of reality in such a strong way that Symbolism itself becomes an artistic movement in visual arts and literature with a wide impact at the dawn of modernity and the 20th century .
