The exhibition curated by Victoria Giraudo, Chief Curator of Malba, and Carlos A. Molina, Chief Curator of MAM, comprises the legacy of the personal archive of Remedios Varo (Anglès, Spain 1908 Mexico City, Mexico 1963), is a central figure in Latin American surrealism and fantastic art and an essential reference in Mexicoœs mid-20th-century art scene as a member of an extraordinary group of exiled artists and intellectuals. The book reproduces the main works of the exhibition created between 1938 and 1963 and focuses on the production of the artist during her exile in Mexico, beginning in 1942. "After almost two years of work on the specifics of the collaboration between MALBA and MAM and thanks to the generous loan on the part of the Mexican Office of Culture, the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes y Literatura (INBAL) and MAM itself, we have the honor of opening the first exhibition of this remarkable artist ever held in South America. "Remedios Varo: constellations" brings together a selection of over one hundred and twenty works -paintings, sketches, as well as a substantial collection of documents from the artist's personal archive, recently donated the MAM collection. The selection includes her notebooks, drafts of her fantastic stories, and correspondence with intellectuals and friends like writers Benjamin Peret, Cesar Moro, and Octavio Paz, and artists Leonora Carrington, Kati Horna, surrealist painter Oscar Dominguez and others." --Page 7.
