An exhibition of work spanning seven decades by Argentine-Italian artist Leonor Fini (1907–1996) explores themes of transformation, masquerade, and performance through paintings, sculpture, and works on paper sourced primarily from the artist’s estate.
About
Fini’s deeply personal practice melds coded autobiographical references to her childhood in Trieste, Italy, with those spanning Shakespeare, Greek mythology, Egyptian and medieval history, and opera. The exhibition, which focuses on figurative depictions of subjects from drama, folklore, and dream, is the first solo presentation of work by Fini at Kasmin and will include costume and sculptural works recently exhibited in The Milk of Dreams: The 59th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia.
This exhibition was made possible through our partnership with Galerie Minsky, Paris, and the Estate of Leonor Fini.
