Second screening of the documentary film programme dedicated to Surrealist artists and writers
Yves Tanguy is recognised as a major painter of surrealism. Although his work is not very abundant, he only painted for about thirty years, his unclassifiable and mysterious painting occupies a prominent place in Surrealist productions. Tanguy is the "painter of frightful aerial, subterranean and maritime elegances" according to Breton, whose movement he joined in 1925.
On the occasion of the exhibition "Alberto Giacometti / André Breton, Surrealist friendships", the Institut Giacometti proposes, in partnership with the Association Atelier André Breton and the Collection Phares, a programme of documentary films devoted to surrealist artists and writers: Jacqueline Lamba, Max Ernst, Claude Cahun, Victor Brauner, Dora Maar, Yves Tanguy and André Breton.
Tuesday 15 February at 6:30 pm
Giacometti Lab, 9 rue Victor Schœlcher 75014 Paris
