Art Basel Miami Beach | Leonor Fini  

<p>This presentation of works by Leonor Fini (1907–1996) at Art Basel Miami Beach spans the Argentine-Italian artist’s six-decade career. It includes paintings, costume and theater designs, drawings, and sculpture. Self-taught, Fini was inspired by Italian Mannerism and German Romanticism. She was defiant throughout her career, emerging as one of the twentieth century’s most significant yet misunderstood female artists. Often labeled a Surrealist, Fini eschewed that definition, charting her own course in Modernism. As seen here, her paintings – a captivating fusion of dreamlike fantasy and the macabre – often reverse gender roles, featuring bold female figures and passive men. </p>
