Taken throughout the 1930s, the works in the exhibition provide an intimate encounter with Maar’s early photographic interests and her preoccupation with the subtle and uncanny.

About

Dora Maar: Contact Prints demonstrates the beginnings of a surrealist oscillation between the banal and the absurd. Spanning unpeopled Parisian rooftops, off-guard acquaintances, and sun-dappled bodies of open water, Maar’s photography is indiscriminate, capitalising on quiet, unseen detail. Her work displays a surrealist magnetism towards found objects and compelling juxtapositions in the everyday that would inform her later, more experimental, photomontage.
