6th Arr.

Step into the mystical universe of Leonora Carrington, the British-born surrealist icon who became a cult figure in Mexico alongside Frida Kahlo. This landmark exhibition at the Musée du Luxembourg traces her journey across continents and artistic movements—from her Celtic roots and surrealist beginnings to her feminist and environmentalist legacy. Through the lens of her famous "Map of the Human Animal," discover how Carrington merged human and animal, feminine and masculine, visible and invisible worlds with radical freedom and contemporary relevance.
