18 September 2013 - 26 January 2014, Admission Free
New Galleries, IMMA, Royal Hospital Kilmainham, Dublin 8
The first major retrospective of Leonora Carrington's work in Ireland, this iconic exhibition is a timely rediscovery of this Surrealist painter and her role in the Surrealist art movement. Carrington is known for her figurative dreamscapes filled with extraordinary and complex narratives informed by her rich interest in mythology, alchemy, fairy tales and the occult. Leonora Carrington The Celtic Surrealist comprises some 50 paintings, eight sculptures, eight tapestries, and 20 works on paper from the 1940s onwards, holds a particular focus on the imagery that enchanted her as a child and on the cultural influences of Mexico. The exhibition is kindly supported by Brian Ranalow of H&K International.

It reminds me of the 'What else is there' video by Royksopp.

I just googled that name as I've never heard of this artist and this was the first thing that came up.
