“While their male counterparts' focus was diverted with masturbatory hallucinations of women as objects, the female Surrealists delved freely into the internal dream world. Akin to Alice, these North American artists and European expats went on personal journeys of exploration. See their subconscious-driven portraiture in a thematically organized group show spanning 175 works from 1931 to 1968, featuring icons like Louise Bourgeois, Frida Kahlo, Lee Miller, and lesser-known heroines including Maya Deren and more.”
