Dream by Dorothea Tanning, 1940
|
If anyone doubts the presence of women artists in the Surrealist art movement in the US, France and Mexico, they should run to the show
In Wonderland at the
Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The show is on until May 6. Here you can see paintings, drawings and sculpture by a dizzying array of fascinating female artists. Dorothea Tanning, perhaps one of the most prominent, died at the age of 102 this year.
She had recently turned her interest to poetry and published a new collection in 2011.
There are also many wonderful artists represented that I was not familiar with. I especially enjoyed the photography of Rose Mandel. I won't inflict you with the bad photograph I took of her photograph.
