Description
The first major exhibition and accompanying publication on visionary artist Ithell Colquhoun and the intertwining realms of art, sexual identity, ecology and occultism that encompassed her enthralling universe.
Ithell Colquhoun was one of the most radical artists of her generation. A seminal figure in the British Surrealist movement during the 1930-40s, she was also a visionary writer and esoteric thinker who charted her own path between the modern art world and the occult.
Overlooked for decades, this landmark exhibition and publication marks the first time the full breadth of Colquhoun's work is illustrated - featuring over 200 artworks and archival materials alongside essays by leading scholars, artists and writers. A dazzling volume, like the ground-breaking artist herself, it contains multitudes, delving into magical systems, abstraction, gender exploration, surrealism and more.
