In 1949, British artist Ithell Colquhoun arrived in Lamorna, a small village on the edge of England, known for fishing, granite quarries, and a magnet for artists drawn by the cliffs, coves, and Celtic standing stones of West Cornwall. In this film, we tell the story of Cornwall, a place of international modernism and the queer avant-garde. See work by Colquhoun on display at Tate St Ives 💙 | Tate St Ives

Marie Sarré, co-commissaire de l'exposition « Surréalisme » vous présente « Scylla » d'Ithell Colquhoun ! 🎥🔴 Née en Inde, élevée en Angleterre, Ithell Colquhoun hérite d’une double culture, hindouiste et celte. En 1939, elle intègre le groupe surréaliste anglais, mais elle en est exclue un an plus tard en raison de sa pratique de l’alchimie et de son refus de quitter les sociétés occultes. L’artiste trouve dans l’alchimie la réconciliation des genres, de l’humain et de la nature, évoquée dans

Happy birthday to Ithell Colquhoun, born on this day in 1906! ✨ Colquhoun (1906–1988) made this painting, ‘Attributes of the Moon’ 1947, while living between London and Cornwall.

DM’s x TATE | Ithell Colquhoun was a provocative artist who refused to conform or compromise. Her work is deeply grounded in the occult and nature — and frequently explores sex and gender. Often overlooked alongside the towering male figures of Surrealism, our collection with Tate celebrates her work — with our boots as the canvas. | Dr. Martens Airwair Thailand

She wasn’t just a surrealist painter. She practiced ritual magic, studied sacred geometry, and refused to give up her occult beliefs even when it cost her a place in the movement. Ithell Colquhoun believed art wasn’t psychology. It was power. #MicrodoseOfArt #Surrealism #WomenInArt
