The article investigats interaction between Ukrainian and Polish surrealism in 1920–1930, features of the creative contribution to development of the general surrealistic ideas. It also compares the activity of the Polish-Ukrainian literary associations of 1920–1930s with French circle and defines dynamics of development of basic principles of poetics – the automatic letter, “an objective case”, a mythological component in surrealism structure. Unlike the French surrealism which in 1920–1930s has concentrated the problematic round ideology, the Ukrainian version of this direction, since the origin, was essentially nonpolitical. The presented research puts one of the problems – comparison of ideological base of the Ukrainian and Polish versions of surrealism (in painting and literature) with understanding of the avant-garde syncretism.
