Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. 'A thrilling insight into one of the 20th century's great artists. Agar's exuberant and colourful life and work come alive in this book' Katy Hessel 'A vivid panorama of an adventurous and stimulating age' Financial Times Whether dancing on the rooftops in Paris, sharing ideas with Pablo Pic…asso, or gathering starfish on the beaches of Cornwall, Eileen Agar (1899-1991) transformed the everyday into the extraordinary. Her legacy as a pioneering figure in the Surrealist movement is firmly established, and her work continues to captivate audiences with its otherworldly beauty and imaginative power. Agar's life was no less extraordinary than her art. Here, she traces her life from her birth in Argentina to the late 1980s. She gives an intimate account of very different worlds: grand house parties in Buenos Aires and Belgravia as a young girl give way to la vie boheme in London and Paris, and a peripatetic existence with her lifelong partner, Hungarian writer Joseph Bard. She enjoyed enriching friendships with contemporaries Paul Nash, Ezra Pound, Evelyn Waugh, Gertrude Hermes and Henry Moore, while a summer spent in the South of France with Picasso, Lee Miller and Man Ray had a lasting impact. Agar introduces them and many others into the narrative of her artistic development; above all, it is Agar's own unwavering resilience, infectious energy and drive that permeates this compelling memoir. Bringing her work to life in all its vibrancy and variety, this updated autobiography is populated with Agar's own personal selection of photographs of family, friends and lovers alongside over fifty colour illustrations of collages, paintings and assemblages spanning her life's work. A beautiful new edition of the long out-of-print autobiography of the pioneering Surrealist artist Eileen Agar. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

First Edition. 24 x 17cm. Paperback, 95pp. First edition. Illustrated, and includes essays by David Gascoyne, Ann Simpson, and Andrew Lambirth. Published by the Trustees of the National Galleries of Scotland for the exhibition Eileen Agar 1899-1991: A Centenary Exhibition that ran between 1st December 1999 to 27th February 2000…at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, then at the Leeds City Art Gallery from 9th March to 30th April 2000. Agar is often categorised as a Surrealist and was among the small selection of British artists chosen to exhibit alongside Salvador Dali, Max Ernst and Joan Miro in the 1936 International Surrealist Exhibition in London. From the inner flap: "She drew equally from Cubism and abstraction to form a uniquely individual style with which to express her surrealistic fantasies". As new.
