Description

Leonor Fini (1907-96) is one of the most important artists and personalities of the twentieth century.

Her work came to prominence as part of the 1936 exhibition Fantastic Art, Dada and Surrealism at New York's Museum of Modern Art, where her paintings were widely celebrated for their uniquely female approach to surrealism - although Fini never joined the surrealist movement.

Self-made and self-taught, she preferred to work on her own and was known for her fierce independence and provocative panache.

A prolific painter, Fini also wrote, worked extensively in book illustration and printmaking, and designed for plays, ballets, operas, and film. Presenting the definitive catalogue raisonne of Leonor Fini's more than 1,100 oil paintings, this book brings together more than 1000 colour illustrations and essays on her work by Fini experts Richard Overstreet and Neil Zukerman and a concise, up-to-date biography by British art historian Peter Webb.
