spaceplayer reacted to tripod fish in Does Objectivism recognize value in surreal art?
I don't think Objectivism even recognizes surrealism as art. It's certainly possible to like surrealistic movies, paintings, etc., but it's not an art.
Art is a selective re-creation of reality according to an artist’s metaphysical value-judgments.

Wrong. Surrealism is art by Rand's definition and criteria, and she loved some surrealist paintings, especially those of Dali.
