The first major exhibition and accompanying publication on visionary artist Ithell Colquhoun and the intertwining realms of art, sexual identity, ecology and occultism that encompassed her enthralling universe.
Ithell Colquhoun was one of the most radical artists of her generation. A seminal figure in the British Surrealist movement during the 1930-40s, she was also a visionary writer and esoteric thinker who charted her own path between the modern art world and the occult.
Overlooked for decades, this landmark exhibition and publication marks the first time the full breadth of Colquhoun's work is illustrated - featuring over 200 artworks and archival materials alongside essays by leading scholars, artists and writers. A dazzling volume, like the ground-breaking artist herself, it contains multitudes, delving into magical systems, abstraction, gender exploration, surrealism and more.

Hardback. Etat : New. The first major exhibition of visionary artist Ithell Colquhoun and the first major accompanying publication on the artist.One of the most radical artists of her generation, Colquhoun was an important figure in British Surrealism during the 1930s and 1940s. An innovative writer and practicing occultist, Colquhoun charted her own course, investigating surrealist methods of unconscious picture-making and fearlessly delving into the realms of myth and magic.Colquhoun explored the possibilities of a divine feminine power as a path to personal fulfilment and societal transformation. Her understanding of the world as a connected spiritual cosmos brought her to Cornwall, where she deepened her creative explorations, inspired by the region's ancient landscape, Celtic traditions, and sacred sites.This landmark exhibition and publication of over 200 artworks and archival materials traces Colquhoun's evolution, from her early student work and engagement with the surrealist movement, to her fascination with the intertwining realms of art, sexual identity, ecology and occultism. It culminates in a room dedicated to Colquhoun's interpretation of the Taro deck - her most accomplished fusion of her artistic and magical practice.Explore Colquhoun's enthralling, multi-layered universe through writings, drawings, paintings, early theatre projects and mural designs, many of which have never been shown publicly before.
