Armed with Madness The Surreal Leonora Carrington

Reluctant muse and feminist champion - heiress, rebel, refugee - and perhaps the last of the great Surrealist artists: Leonora Carrington played many roles in her long and extraordinary life. But the demons that have both haunted and inspired her work are gathering, and when the world goes mad with the outbreak of war and the Nazi invasion, Leonora's own hold on reality collapses into a terrifying psychotic episode of her own. This new work by the acclaimed partnership of Mary and Bryan Talbot celebrates the life and career of a truly remarkable artist and woman.
