  • Reconsidering the Female Monster in the Art of Leonor Fini
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Loughborough University Institutional Repository Sphinxes, Witches and Little Girls: Reconsidering the Female Monster in the Art of Leonor Fini Rachael Grew Abstract As champions of the irrational and the uncanny, the Surrealists frequently incorporated classical monsters into their art as part of their search for a new modern myth. However, these creatures became subject to gender codification, with the sphinx and chimera in particular becoming attached to the imagery surrounding the sexually provocative, castrating femme-fatale. The woman Surrealist Leonor Fini (1907-1996) diverged from the Surrealist norm to create complex and ambiguous monsters, rather than simply expressions of the lethally enticing femme-fatale. Fini uses a range of monsters in her art, from the classical sphinx to creatures of popular culture, such as the witch and the werewolf. These monsters are almost always female, or at the very least androgynous, yet the actions and attitudes they are found in invites a new reading of the destructive female monster and/or the ‘monstrous’ female. Equally, the children and adolescent girls that appear in her work are often depicted in a negative light: they are ugly, unkind and selfish. Through a detailed iconographical analysis, this paper will explore Fini’s use of both traditional and non-traditional monsters as a method of subverting preconceived gender and social codes, ultimately reconsidering the notion of what exactly is monstrous. Key words: Surrealism, Fini, myth, monsters, sphinx, witch, stryge, woman. ***** The female monster in both classical and popular traditions, such as the sphinx, chimera, siren and witch, is frequently associated with depraved sexuality and destruction.

  • Women Surrealists: Sexuality, Fetish, Femininity and Female Surrealism
    WOMEN SURREALISTS: SEXUALITY, FETISH, FEMININITY AND FEMALE SURREALISM BY SABINA DANIELA STENT A Thesis Submitted to THE UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Modern Languages School of Languages, Cultures, Art History and Music The University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The objective of this thesis is to challenge the patriarchal traditions of Surrealism by examining the topic from the perspective of its women practitioners. Unlike past research, which often focuses on the biographical details of women artists, this thesis provides a case study of a select group of women Surrealists – chosen for the variety of their artistic practice and creativity – based on the close textual analysis of selected works. Specifically, this study will deal with names that are familiar (Lee Miller, Meret Oppenheim, Frida Kahlo), marginal (Elsa Schiaparelli) or simply ignored or dismissed within existing critical analyses (Alice Rahon). The focus of individual chapters will range from photography and sculpture to fashion, alchemy and folklore. By exploring subjects neglected in much orthodox male Surrealist practice, it will become evident that the women artists discussed here created their own form of Surrealism, one that was respectful and loyal to the movement’s founding principles even while it playfully and provocatively transformed them.

  • Frieze New York Randall's Island Park Booth
    LEONOR FINI Armoire anthropomorphe (Anthropomorphic Wardrobe) 1939 Oil on wood 86 1/2 x 57 x 12 1/2 inches Frieze New York Randall’s Island Park Booth S27 Following her recent success of her retrospective at the Museum of Sex, titled Theatre of Desire, 1930-1990, and a renewed interest in works, Leila Heller Gallery is pleased to present a solo installation featuring works by Leonor Fini (1907-1996), one of the most significant female artists of the twentieth century. Brought up in Italy, Fini examined Renaissance and Mannerist paintings and took an interest in morbid subject matter, often depicting cadavers at the local morgue. Without formal artistic training, her studies inspired the elongated limbs and forms of her figures. Her resulting works, culled from fantasy and mythological images, i.e. the sphinx, reflect her idea of beauty through a dominant feminine gaze by presenting women as subjects with, not of, desire and male nudes featuring androgynous characteristics. A phenomenon much like what we see today in the art world, where traditional/social conventions are rejected — the exploration of identity and artistic expression remain unaltered. Fini produced in the Surrealist style as one of the few women exhibiting alongside Salvador Dalí and Max Ernst. For all intents and purposes, Fini was very much so a woman ahead of her time challenging conventions in a male-dominated field, capturing the dichotomy between the masculine and the feminine. Upon first glance of her works, there is a flirtatious humor about them commonly found across the Surrealism genre; however, a deeper understanding unearths darker contextual meaning.

A persistent impression (as Rodgers acknowledges on page 276) is diat the encyclopaedic quality of Beauvoir's text has led to it being constandy cited but not necessarily thoroughly read and understood. This is demonstrated in the interview with Chawaf who, despite admitting to not having read Le Deuxieme Sexe, pronounces vehemently on Beauvoir's text and life. Aldiough by 1970, Beauvoir was already 'un monument' (in Delphy's words) for feminists wanting to forge their own creative and theoretical paths, die success of Le Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/fs/article/LIV/3/407/512493 by guest on 29 September 2021 Deuxieme Sexe has resided both in its popular impact and in the way in which it was already part of die established theoretical landscape for the women interviewed here. For even if few interviewees acknowledge Beauvoir as a direct influence on their own work, they all recognize the historical importance of Le Deuxieme Sexe. One is thus inclined to agree with Le Doeuff diat 'travailler avec la deception' has been more intellectually productive for French feminism than approaching Le Deuxieme Sexe as 'la Bible du feminisme moderne'.

Oelze’s works capture his belief that the making of art was an act akin to clairvoyance; that the artist was like a blind man, incapable of seeing reality, but capable of prophesy; and that history would certainly confirm these prophecies, which were invariably of a sinister nature. Oelze evidenced an early artistic talent and, following brief military service in World War I, attended the School of Applied Arts in Magdeburg, Germany, where he had been born into an ascetic, middle-class family in 1900. Between 1921 and 1925, Oelze was a student at the Bauhaus in Weimar, where he studied with Walter Gropius, Johannes Itten, Oskar Schlemmer and, most probably, with Paul Klee. Around 1930, Oelze was exposed to the works being made by the Surrealist group in Paris and this determined a course for his own work from which he did not waver for the remaining 50 years of his life.

  • Surrealism, Occultism and Politics
    Surrealism, Occultism and Politics This volume examines the relationship between occultism and Surrealism, specif- ically exploring the reception and appropriation of occult thought, motifs, tropes and techniques by surrealist artists and writers in Europe and the Americas from the 1920s through the 1960s. Its central focus is the specific use of occultism as a site of political and social resistance, ideological contestation, subversion and revolution. Additional focus is placed on the ways occultism was implicated in surrealist dis- courses on identity, gender, sexuality, utopianism and radicalism. Dr. Tessel M.

  • Gender Power Struggles and the Occult in Surrealism Rachael Grew, University of Glasgow
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Loughborough University Institutional Repository A Wizard / Witch’s Duel: Gender Power Struggles and the Occult in Surrealism Rachael Grew, University of Glasgow Surrealists of both genders identified themselves with occult figures such as the alchemist, the magician, the shaman and the witch in order to increase their connection with both the physical and spiritual creativity that is associated with such figures as the transformers of matter, and / or mediums to another world. This paper will discuss the ways in which Surrealist artists used depictions of various occult figures as part of a gendered power struggle for creative autonomy. Using examples from some less well known Surrealists, it will largely focus on the male appropriation of female abilities but also demonstrate how women artists responded to this specific appropriation.1 Surrealism has often been mistakenly accused of misogyny – Hans Bellmer’s sexually explicit and dismembered dolls and André Masson’s violent ‘Massacre’ series no doubt fuelling such accusations.2 In reality, the Surrealists did have a progressive attitude towards women’s rights, calling for their social and sexual liberation.3 Despite this however, male Surrealists still tended to divide women into two restrictive categories: the femme enfant, who was innocent of her sexual attraction and acted as a muse for the male artist, and the femme fatale, who was the highly sexual, provocative, castrating woman.
