My family and I went to LACMA this week and saw the wonderful "In Wonderland" art show. All the artists works were by Female Surrealists of the 1930's through the 1960's. I went primarily to see Frida's paintings in person. I found such beautiful and profound paintings by women I had never heard of. I quite literally fell in love with Remedios Varo's work. Here are a few pics of my favorites. I'm very inspired now and hopefully will follow my unconscious into creating surreal artwork as the next step in my artful journey.
Bridget Tichenor: "Lideres" 1967 (Leaders)
Remedios Varo: "Creacion de las Aves" 1958 (Creation of the Birds)
Dorr Bothwell: Hollywood Success 1940
Remedios Varo: "Mujer saliendo de psicoanalista" 1960 (woman departing psychoanalists office)
Kati Horna: "Historia de una muneca" 1960 (history of a doll)
Remedios Varo: "Papilla estelar" 1958 (stellar pablum)
Alice Rahon: Balada para Frida Kahlo (Balad for Frida Kahlo
