Leonora Carrington: Surrealism, Alchemy and Art | Susan L. Aberth
After the dramas and tragic separations of the Second World War, Carrington ended up in the 1940s as part of the circle of Surrealist European emigres living in Mexico City. Close friends with Luis Bunuel, Benjamin Peret, Octavio Paz and a host of both expatriate Surrealists and Mexican modernists, Carringtion was at the centre of Mexican cultural life, while still maintaining her European connections. --
