This exhibition, the first in Italy to be dedicated to the work of Leonora Carrington, aims to explore the artist in all her complexity, highlighting her creative universe and powerful intellectual dimension through her visionary and multifaceted works. 

The exhibition will emphasize Carrington's lifelong relationship with Italy, starting with her discovery of Italian art in Florence as a teenager and exploring her post-Victorian and Celtic origins as well as her affiliation with Surrealism. Alongside these key aspects of her life, the project is divided into various themes that narrate Carrington's journey as a woman artist, migrant, exile, mother, avant-garde feminist, ecologist, and an artist who spent her entire life as a perpetual traveler through other worlds and dimensions, in a permanent quest for self-knowledge. 

The exhibition includes not only paintings but also photographs, books from her personal library, and archival material. 

An exhibition by the Municipality of Milan - Culture Area | Palazzo Reale | MondoMostre.
