I am very excited to announce that I have written a new book, The Story of Art without Men: An illustrated guide to amazing women artists (out on 5 March!). It's an adaptation of The Story of Art without Men for readers aged 8–14 (and above), brought to life with beautiful illustrations by Ping Zhu and artworks from the past 500 years. From the Renaissance to the present day, via Cornwall, Japan, Paris and New York City, this book features a whole host of artistic trailblazers, freedom fighters, and game changers. We look at Surrealism – a movement born out of the horrors of the First World War in Paris, where artists turned to their imaginations and away from the broken world around them for inspiration… LISTEN TO A TEASER HERE... as I take my reader through the magical worlds of Leonora Carrington, Leonor Fini, Lee Miller, and more.

Eden is joined by friend of the cast Jesse Kohn (The Book of Webs) to talk about Leonora Carrington's beguiling and dense The Stone Door.

Exploded Views: Speculative Form and the Labor of Inquiry (U Minnesota Press, 2025) is the latest book by scholar Jonathan P. Eburne, J. H. Hexter Professor in the Humanities at Washington University in St. Louis. An experiment in returning to incomplete scholarly projects to renovate and reimagine them, the book stages a series of encounters with essays “suspended in process”: essays that Jonathan began writing but that didn't materialize in their intended form. Fascinating, witty, and original, Exploded Views is a record of Jonathan's intellectual curiosity in its rich idiosyncrasy—from the parasitical deformations of insect galls to the speculative science of “orgone energy,” from Leonora Carrington's surrealist art and literature to methamphetamine addiction in the time of late capitalism, and more. It's also a challenge for scholars to account for the many kinds of labor that make and unmake scholarship, and, just as importantly, an unabashed defence of "nerding out" as the humanities scholar's prerogative. This conversation brings together Exploded Views with the work of NBN host Alix Beeston, whose interest in abandoned and interrupted scholarly and creative works informs her recent co-edited book Incomplete. Like Exploded Views itself, Jonathan and Alix's frank and wide-ranging discussion brings to the foreground the kinds of scholarly activity that usually sit in the background of scholarly writing, not least the communities, relationships, and environments that define intellectual labor. What does it mean, Jonathan and Alix ask, to be doing the kind of work we do as scholars? What does it feel like to do this work? What does it require or cost? And what might be the value of cultural criticism as an inventive, creative practice—or even, perhaps, a form of relational labor akin to friendship? The non-profit bookstore Jonathan helped to found is The Print Factory in Bellafonte, Pennsylvania—check it out if you're in the area!

In this episode of More Than a Muse, hosts Sadie and Stauney dive into the enduring allure of witches—both historical and modern. From Sadie's recent trip to Salem and reflections on the infamous witch trials to conversations about how social media fuels today's digital witch hunts, they explore the intersection of outrage, activism, and empowerment. The discussion also highlights the Three Witches of Surrealism—Leonora Carrington, Remedios Varo, and Kati Horna—three visionary artists who fled war-torn Europe for Mexico and found creative freedom through mysticism and sisterhood. Together, they trace how the witch has transformed from a symbol of persecution into one of power, rebellion, and artistic magic. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back to the Create Podcast. Just in time for the fall season, I am joined by Pam Grossman, a writer, curator, teacher, and practicing witch whose work beautifully bridges creativity, culture, and magic. Pam is the host of The Witch Wave podcast (called “the Terry Gross of witches” by Vulture), the author of Waking the Witch: Reflections on Women, Magic, and Power, and co-editor of Taschen's Witchcraft volume in the Library of Esoterica series. Her essays have appeared in The New York Times, The Atlantic, TIME, and more. She has also organized exhibitions such as Language of the Birds: Occult and Art at NYU and spoken at institutions including MoMA and Columbia University. Her brand-new book, Magic Maker: The Enchanted Path to Creativity (Penguin Life & Hay House UK, October 14, 2025), is a guide to connecting with the creative force through ritual, history, and practice. It explores how artists and visionaries such as Hilma af Klint, David Bowie, Octavia E. Butler, and Leonora Carrington have used magic as part of their creative process, and how you can do the same in your own life. In This Episode, We Discuss Pam's creative roots and how she began merging her artistic and magical practices Misconceptions about witchcraft and how the archetype of the witch has evolved How Magic Maker links art and magic, showing that creativity itself can be a spiritual practice Practical rituals to protect your studio time and invite inspiration, from lighting candles to leaving offerings or simply asking for guidance The idea of “low frequency” and “high frequency” desires in art and business, and how to balance material needs with higher intentions Pam's experiences speaking at institutions like MoMA and casting a love spell on stage at Carnegie Hall with Jinkx Monsoon The role of research, fascination, and intuition when writing a book Artists who inspire her including Leonora Carrington, Remedios Varo, Hilma af Klint, Max Ernst, and Kurt Seligmann Resources and Mentions Books by Pam Grossman Magic Maker: The Enchanted Path to Creativity (Penguin Life & Hay House UK, 2025) → Pre-order here Waking the Witch: Reflections on Women, Magic, and Power (Simon & Schuster, 2019) What Is a Witch (Tin Can Forest Press, 2016) Witchcraft (Taschen's Library of Esoterica series, co-edited with Jessica Hundley, 2020) Podcast The Witch Wave – Pam's long-running podcast on art, culture, and magic Exhibitions and Projects Language of the Birds: Occult and Art (NYU, 2016) → languageofthebirds.org Art of the Occult by S.

Leonora Carrington was a prodigious artist closely associated with major surrealists of the 1930s. Though only sporadically in print until recently, her writing has helped cement her cult status, not least The Hearing Trumpet (1974). Before her family consign her to an old-age facility, nonagenarian Marian Leatherby is gifted a hearing trumpet with almost magical capabilities. Her institutionalisation leads to much eavesdropping, a Grail quest, descent into the underworld and an apocalyptic ice age. Joyous, disturbing and subversive, The Hearing Trumpet is full of themes and images that populate Carrington's artwork and other writing. Both Marina and Chloe knew Leonora Carrington, and in this episode they reflect on the ways her personality inflected her work. Their reading of The Hearing Trumpet reveals her humour, her visionary imagination and her attention to the boundaries between inner and outer realties.

Jorge Luis Borges was a librarian with rock star status, a stimulus for magical realism who was not a magical realist, and a wholly original writer who catalogued and defined his own precursors. It's fitting that he was fascinated by paradoxes, and his most famous stories are fantasias on themes at the heart of this series: dreams, mirrors, recursion, labyrinths, language and creation. Marina and Chloe explore Borges's fiction with particular focus on two stories: ‘The Circular Ruins' and ‘The Aleph'. They discuss the many contradictions and puzzles in his life and work, and the ways in which he transformed the writing of his contemporaries, successors and distant ancestors.

His methodology combines a global history perspective on Colonial America with a decolonial approach, intersecting themes of race, gender, and imperialism to analyze modern occultism in Latin America. His new research project will focus on “Occult Movements and Mexican Mural Art: What Role Did Occult Movements Play in Mexican Mural Art During the Interwar Period?”In this episode, Mariano and I explore his groundbreaking research into the overlooked women of the Mexican muralist movement. Building on his earlier work, Mariano dives into the rich, complex history of Mexican muralism—an artistic revolution born from post-revolutionary ideals and dominated by the towering figures of “Los Tres Grandes.”But beyond the celebrated murals of Rivera, Orozco, and Siqueiros lies a hidden narrative: the women artists whose contributions were marginalized or erased. Mariano introduces us to several of these remarkable figures, focusing in particular on María Izquierdo and Sofía Bassi. He shares insights into their lives, artistic themes, and the esoteric influences that shaped their work, while unpacking why their legacies remain in the shadows compared to contemporaries like Frida Kahlo and Leonora Carrington.This episode is a compelling journey into art history, gender politics, and the mystical dimensions of creativity. Dr. Villalba also discusses the goals of his current project and how listeners can engage with the research on his online platform.An editing correction: Just a note to correct a mistake made during the interview: In the discussion about Frieda Kahlo's parents (a German father and a Mexican mother), Mariano mistakenly states that (María) Izquierdo was the daughter instead of Kahlo. There was a slight mix-up here as Mariano was comparing Frieda Kahlo and María Izquierdo. So please be aware of this when listening.PROGRAM NOTESMariano Villalba | Center for the Study of World ReligionsOccult Mexican art | Explore the Occult in Mexican visual artAbout Gender & Visual Arts | Discover Women's Insight — Occult Mexican artAbout Esotericism & Muralism | Explore Mexican Art — Occult Mexican artMuralism and Mexican Identity: Rediscovering the Esoteric Visions of Post-Revolution Female Artists: Q&A with Mariano Villalba | Center for the Study of World ReligionsOccult Movements and Mexican Mural Art | Center for the Study of World ReligionsThe Visionary World of Sofía Bassi | Center for the Study of World ReligionsFundación | Sofia BassiEsotericism, Gender, and the Legacy of a Mexican Artist | Center for the Study of World ReligionsMariano Villalba - Harvard University Music and Editing: Daniel P.

Valentina Ferri"La cioccolata di Euterpe"Partitura per nuovi mitifveditoriwww.fveditori.itCosa hanno in comune Leonora Carrington ed Edgar Allan Poe? Una merenda con la cioccolata a Parigi e Francesco Petrarca? E ancora, cosa può avvicinare i versi di un mistico islamico a quelli del poeta Dylan Thomas? La risposta è: la musica. Grazie alla sua musa Euterpe, infatti, prendono qui vita tanghi e quadri surrealisti, pagine dodecafoniche insieme ad Arie rossiniane e gourmanderie. Ogni autore qui crea tra-miti fra la propria arte e il talento altrui dando vita a spartiti in cui possono figurare danze popolari spagnole e pagine di Aleksandr Skrjabin, Sirene fuggite dall'Ulysses di James Joyce e feste mascherate alla corte di Leonor Fini. Un viaggio appassionante attraverso i capolavori della letteratura, della pittura e della musica, tra testi sacri e profani ascoltati – letti – in una inedita “partitura”. Valentina Ferri è giornalista, attrice e scrittrice: autrice di testi teatrali e biografie su personaggi dell'arte e della musica, coniuga da molto tempo la ricerca sulla voce e l'efficacia della comunicazione sonora con la scrittura e l'interpretazione di testi e autori inediti. È alla ricerca della pietra filosofale, della parola che mondi possa aprirci e, forse, della prima nota che diede fuoco alle stelle.

Leonora im Morgenlicht möchte kein typisches Biopic sein, wirkt phasenweise aber doch nur wie die reduzierte, nicht-linear erzählte Variante eines solchen. Um sich der banalen Nacherzählform effektiver zu entziehen, hätte dieser Film noch viel, viel ambitionierter die surreale Kunst der realen Leonora Carrington berücksichtigen, ja auch filmisch integrieren müssen. Wenn er das zwischendurch mal konsequenter macht, hat er vereinzelt seine besten Momente - und auch Hauptdarstellerin Olivia Vinall überzeugt immerhin.

About Tere Derbez Tere Derbez was born in Mexico City, has her art studio at San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, and Scottsdale, Arizona; since she was a child, she has showed her love for painting. As a teenager she began her studies at the Institute of Fine Arts of San Luis Potosí, where she cultivated a deep friendship with teacher Raúl Gamboa, a contemporary of Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Rufino Tamayo, and from whom she learned the basics of drawing and the secrets of painting, and whom Tere Derbez considers her mentor. However, her interest in painting and writing never ceases. Since 1995, she has dedicated her full time to her passion; painting and writing, always looking for new forms and techniques of expression. Her painting style leads towards surrealism, having Remedios Varo and Leonora Carrington as role models. She describes herself as a passionate woman who loves all her experiences, recognizing that in the face of people, essentially in their eyes, their soul is reflected. She believes that at this time Mexico needs a new stream of artists that need support to be able to dedicate themselves fully to the creation of their works. As a writer, she writes weekly in two newspapers in Mexico: El Sol de San Luis y Del Bajio, and monthly in Hominis Magazine. She has written two books of poems, and the novel «El Ángel de Sofía». She also has a foundation called «El Ángel de Sofía», which is focused on helping young people and adults from marginalized areas, to help to realize their dreams of life by promoting education, art and sports. The foundation puts special attention on the area of mental health. Tere currently collaborates in the Huasteca Potosina and the Sierra Tarahumara as well as in San Luis Potosí, where a Cultural Program was started and a «Cultural and Arts Center» was created in an abandoned market.

"Worldbuilding Through Memory and Myth: Elias Hernandez on Storytelling, Surrealism, and the Legacy of Conflict" In this immersive episode of What's My Thesis?, host Javier Proenza welcomes artist and educator Elias Hernandez, whose deeply narrative visual practice draws from Latin American surrealism, video game aesthetics, and inherited stories of displacement and resilience. A recent MFA graduate from USC and collaborator with cult streetwear label Brain Dead, Hernandez charts a complex universe in his paintings—populated by star-bearing knights, sentient castles, and time-traveling wizards—where memory, mythology, and trauma are rendered in fantastical allegory. Born in Mountain View and raised between the Bay Area and Sunnyvale, Hernandez reflects on a childhood steeped in card games like Magic: The Gathering, which sparked his fascination with visual storytelling. These early interests evolved into a practice that explores “the burden and blessing” of cultural inheritance—from Salvadoran family histories shaped by civil war to folkloric Catholic imagery and Latin American feminist surrealism. In conversation, Hernandez discusses how drawing, teaching, and game-inspired worldbuilding intersect in his creative process. His paintings act as sequential mythologies—each one building upon the last—presenting a nonlinear, symbolic narrative of a hero's journey infused with biblical allusions, cosmic cults, and archetypes of good and evil. These compositions resist linear interpretation, instead inviting viewers into a slow unfolding of meaning that echoes oral tradition and pre-Columbian storytelling. As Hernandez explains, his work is not overtly political, yet it is politicized by its very existence within American contemporary art spaces. Drawing from artists like Otto Dix, Diego Rivera, and Leonora Carrington, his practice embodies a transhistorical dialogue where surrealist aesthetics and contemporary iconography converge—memes, murals, and medieval allegory colliding in a uniquely generational vision. Highlights include: How early exposure to fantasy media and tabletop gaming shaped his narrative sensibility The role of inherited trauma in the creative act and character development Reflections on his time as a bilingual educator in Oakland and the visual languages of immigrant youth A detailed breakdown of his fictional universe, including moon-worshipping cults and star-forging armor The spiritual dimensions of drawing and ceramics as ritual practices Insight into Central American cultural erasure and mythological reimaginings Hernandez's work transcends medium and genre, bridging pop culture with ancient cosmology, and positioning painting as a vehicle for complex identity expression and speculative folklore. This episode is an invitation into the mind of a worldbuilder—one who channels collective memory into realms where the past haunts, empowers, and transforms.

Nos hemos encontrado en la Exposición "1924 : otros surrealismos" ( Fundación Mapfre / Madrid) a Remedios Varo . Nació en Anglés (Girona) en 1908, fue de las primeras mujeres y de las más jóvenes en entrar en la Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando en Madrid junto a otros grandes como Pîcasso, Dalí o Maruja Mallo. Fue una moderna, una mujer sofisticada. Se unió pronto a los surrealistas, primero a los logicofobistas catalanes y tras la guerra civil, como pareja del poeta francés Benjamin Péret, entra de lleno en el círculo de André Bretón en París. Allí conoce a una persona clave en su vida posterior que será la compañera de generación Leonora Carrington. La llegada de los nazis a Francia le hace huir de nuevo vía Marsella y Marruecos destino México. Es en México donde, juntos a otros exiliados europeos, donde encuentra su sitio , aunque pasó también unos años junto a su madre y su hermano en Venezuela. En el país del Orinoco hizo los míticos carteles para la farmacéutica Bayern que son ya parte de su obra. Pero volvió a México donde estaban todos sus amigos y amigas, especialmente Leonora Carrington con la que compartía todo. Y es en la década de los 50, cuando se casa con el austriaco Walter Gruen, el gran momento de Remedios Varo, cuando se puede dedicar exclusivamente a la pintura al tener una seguridad económica. Son sus años de mayor producción hasta su temprana muerte en 1963. Se convierte en la artista consentida de México. Sus exposiciones tenían más éxito en México que las de Frida Khalo. Sus mundos mágicos y su calidad artística llegaron mucho al público. Sus obras ya se pueden ver en los grandes museos del mundo, aunque a su país de nacimiento, España, siguen llegando con cuenta gotas. Remedios Varo está considerada uno de los grandes nombres del arte surrealista. Hoy hemos viajado su vida con la ayuda de Estrella De Diego, comisaria de la exposición de la Fundación Mapfre "1924: otros surrealismos" , las gestoras culturales e historiadoras Teresa Arcq y Alma Reza, el periodista experto en arte Pablo Ortiz de Zárate "el artesano" , Albert Roura , concejal de turismo de Anglés (Girona) , Vicenç Batalla, corresponsal de la SER en Francia, y Alejandra Rohr y Pepe Rubio, guionista de Hoy por Hoy (Cadena SER).
Estrella de Diego Otero experta en artistas del Surrealismo es la comisaria de la exposición "1924 Otros Surrealismos" en la Fundación Mapfre que podrás visitar hasta el 11 de mayo donde podrás explorar mundos mágicos a partir de la piedra filosofal, mundos oníricos, misticismos, pesadillas. Temáticas que inspiraban desde el inconsciente a artistas como Gala, Remedios Varo, Maruja Mallo, Leonora Carrington u otros menos conocidos como Toyen.

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the writer, critic, and author, Merve Emre. Currently the Shapiro-Silverberg Professor of Creative Writing and Criticism at Wesleyan University – and the Director of the Shapiro Center for Creative Writing and Criticism – Emre is also the acclaimed and award-winning author of numerous books. These include Paraliterary: The Making of Bad Readers in Postwar America; The Personality Brokers (selected as one of the best books of 2018 by the New York Times, and others); The Ferrante Letters (winner of the 2021 PROSE award for literature). A holder of prizes in Literary Criticism, Emre is also a contributing writer to The New Yorker, where she has written extensively on art and literature, from Leonora Carrington to Susan Sontag. But! The reason why we are speaking to Emre today is because she is also an ardent expert on Virginia Woolf and the wider Bloomsbury Group, having authored the stunningly beautiful – and informative – The Annotated Mrs. Dalloway, a book that brings alive Woolf's life and words, and contextualises the radical and pioneering lives of those in the Bloomsbury Group in the most effervescent ways. So today on the podcast, we are going to be discussing the sisters at the centre of this movement: Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf, women who were born into a Victorian society in London but who broke free of all traditions, who formed languages, both artistic and literary, that paved the way of modernism and modernist thinking in the UK and beyond. We are going to be delving into their life and work: looking at how they informed each other and visualised or put into words the world from their distinct and radical perspectives.

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the esteemed writer and novelist, Chloe Aridjis, speaking on her friend, LEONORA CARRINGTON! Born in New York City, raised in the Netherlands and then Mexico City, Aridjis is a writer of numerous award-winning books, including three novels: Book of Clouds, Asunder, and Sea Monsters. Aridjis is also the author of numerous books and essays, including an A–Z profile on the artist we are very excitingly discussing today: Leonora Carrington, the great late British-born painter, who ran away to Paris in her teens before escaping Europe at the outbreak of the Second World War, and settling in Mexico City in the 40s, where she lived until her death in 2011. And it was in Mexico City that Aridjis got to know the surrealist, who she had tea with on Sundays and noted their extroardnary conversations that she published in, among others, Tea and Creatures with Leonora Carrington: A Photo Essay… a beautiful piece that looks at their friendship. In 2015, Aridjis went on to co-curate a major exhibition of Carrington's work at Tate Liverpool, affirming her as one of the greatest and most relevant artists to today's world. This episode is going to be slightly different to usual, as back in 2019 – for one of our first ever podcast episodes – we discussed the life of Leonora Carrington with her biographer cousin, Joanna Moorhead. We also discussed Carrington briefly with writer Deborah Levy – so do check those out. But! Today I couldn't be more excited to be delving into Arjidis's memories with the artist, uncovering the mystical symbolism that populates her work – from vegetables to cats, eggs to giants, cauldrons to kitchens, underworlds to hybridised figures – her friendships, character, and of course her paintings and writings, too.
