Description
This beautiful book stunningly illustrates the magical journey of Leonora Carrington from little rich girl to international surrealist painter. Leonora’s life was intertwined with the powerful events and people that shaped the twentieth century, and over her time as an artist she met Salvador Dalí, Marcel Duchamp, Diego Rivera, and Frida Kahlo and created art alongside Max Ernst and Remedios Varo.
Out of This World is the perfect book for introducing young readers to artists —particularly a female artist. Leonora’s life overlapped with so many artists and writers throughout history, so this book is also a great starting point for readers who wish to learn about art and the surrealist movement.
