Overview

This is the first major exhibition of women artists and Surrealism ever to be held in Europe. It provides a fascinating insight into the crucial (but at the time, not fully recognised) role that women artists played in the Surrealist art movement. The exhibition features over 150 works by 32 artists including Frida Kahlo, Lee Miller, Meret Oppenheim and Leonora Carrington from public and private collections across the world.
