Untitled, 1979 by Leonora Carrington. The artist is known for her surrealist dreamscapes inspired by an interest in mythology and fairy tales. Courtesy of the Leonora Carrington Council and rossogranada Paintings by the British artist are breaking records at auction. On show at Newlands House in Petworth their surreal vision will beguile you. "It’s not a straight painting show. Here is Leonora in all her guises, throwing every art form into her creative cauldron. There are bronzes and tapestries, murals and masks, amulets and painted furniture, elaborately furred costume designs for plays and marvellous heads for a production of The Tempest (peer inside to see the papier- mâché bones)." ★★★★ Laura Freeman, The Times READ FULL REVIEW The exhibition was made possible with the support of the Leonora Carrington Consejo and rossogranada, the exclusive representative of Leonora Carrington Consejo in the UK, Europe and Switzerland.
