Text in Italian and French Comune di Ferrara, Galleria Civica d'arte Moderna, Palazzo dei Diamanti, 2 Luglio-30 Settembre 1983. Born to an Argentinean father and an Italian mother, Leonor Fini received a cosmopolitan education in the heart of the Triestine literary scene. In 1925, having decided to paint, she moved to Milan, where the approach of Renaissance painters inspired her. Meeting Savinio, Carrą, and other Italian Magical Realists had a profound effect on her. When she moved to Paris in 1931, her interest in Surrealism strengthened her penchant for the wonderful and dream-like. Despite her friendships within the group of Surrealists, she explored the imaginary visions dictated by her fantasies alone: women-sphinxes, ephebes, and chimeras populate scenes where sacred rituals mix with the erotic, in an atmosphere which is incandescent and gloomy by turns, and always enigmatic.
