Remedios Varo. Mystery and Revelation

Born in Spain in 1908, the surrealist artist Remedios Varo was marked by two wars, the Spanish Civil War and WWII. During her exile in Mexico from 1941 until her death in 1963, she developed her pictorial imagery and perfected the virtuoso technique which would identify her as a weaver of dreams in a world of medieval reminiscences populated by fantastic beings and objects connected with the celestial bodies.
