Williams, husband of the aboveThence by descent to the present owner Lot Essay:Scenes for a Sorcerer (You Never See the Witches) The roster of our Figuratively Speaking sale reads like a veritable Who" Who of some of the key players of the twentieth-century Mexican avant-garde—Wolfgang Paalen, Alice Rahon, and Diego Rivera, among others—as collected by Florence Arquin, the noted collector, critic, educator, and celebrated artist in her own right. Arquin, though born in New York, spent much of her life and career in Chicago, Mexico, and traveling through Latin America, employing her experiences as an artist, a friend, and confidant of important artists in Mexico such as Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, and her travels to champion the study of Mexican and Latin American art in the United States. Hindman is pleased to offer these works from the Florence Arquin Collection, many of which feature gifts from her circle of friends that, in addition to emphasizing the intricacies of the social web of this artistic community, are relics from crucial moments in their careers. This is particularly clear in the works offered by Wolfgang Paalen and Alice Rahon— who—from Parisian beginnings among the vibrancy of the Surrealist movement to the fertile influences of the Americas—are emblematic of the chaotic and romantic development of the art world in their time. Born in 1904 in Chenecy-Bullion, France, Alice Marie Yvonne Philppot would become Alice Paalen and later Alice Rahon, adopting her mother" maiden name. She was sometimes born in 1912, or in Brittany, where she summered as a child, or in any number of places in any number of years. It" fitting, then, that the 2021 anthology of her poetry transcribed in English by Mary Ann Caws is titled Shapeshifter. Rather than a loss of identity, her character's fluidity mirrors her little-known yet lasting impact on some of the most influential figures in art history and her multidisciplinary, spellbinding career. At age three, her right hip fractured, and then her leg broke at twelve, causing much of her childhood to be confined to a cast in relative isolation. The solitude wasn’t an issue for her avid imagination and only further fueled her hunger for books and stories of mythology. Her family moved to Paris in 1920, and she met the artist Wolfgang Paalen on a trip to Corsica in 1931. Paalen was in Corsica with a dear friend, Swiss photographer Eva Sulzer. Paalen and Sulzer met after Paalen" painful rejection from the Academy in Berlin. He was ultimately undeterred from becoming an artist; having grown up surrounded by his father" collection of Old Masters paintings and under the tutelage of painter Leo von Konig, his deep appreciation for the subject had been instilled from an early age. Although Paalen was a year her junior, it seemed he had lived several lifetimes by the time he met Rahon. Formerly distinguished upper-class members of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, his parents separated after his younger brother died suddenly in an insane asylum following a homoerotic affair, presumably of suicide. His mother" increasingly bipolar disposition worsened as the Wall Street crash of 1929 drained the rest of their fortune. Finally, his older brother Rainer shot himself in the head with a pistol in front of him. Rainer miraculously survived, but Paalen" personal and artistic development had been forever altered in this decade of family tragedy. Paalen and Rahon fell deeply in love in Paris, marrying in 1934. Perched cautiously in the years between the wars, Paris was bohemian heaven, with Andre Breton at the helm of the burgeoning Surrealist movement. Paalen was already among this circle and brought the vivacious Rahon along with him; she quickly befriended Miro, modeled for Man Ray in Harper" Bazaar, and began designing hats for Schiaparelli. eluard nicknamed her L’Abeielle Noire (the black bee) for her deep brunette hair, and Picasso took her as a lover before Paalen harshly objected. Breton officially invited the couple to join the Surrealists in 1935. Around this time, Rahon began to paint, scraping the paint from Paalen" palettes to make works inspired by the ancient wall paintings in Altamira, Spain, that they had visited at Miro" bequest. Deeply inspired by her travels, the couple returned to Paris, where Breton encouraged Rahon to publish her first book of poetry: A meme la Terre (On Bare Ground), printed by Editions Surrealistes -- a limited edition each with an engraving by Yves Tanguy. She would go on to publish two additional books of poetry before deciding to devote herself entirely to painting. At the same time, Breton was encouraging another artist: Frida Kahlo. After meeting in Mexico through Leon Trotsky, the Soviet revolutionary, he arranged for her first solo exhibition at the Julien Levy Gallery in New York in 1938. After its success, he invited her to Paris for another exhibition the following year. Kahlo arrived in Paris to find that Breton had yet to clear any of her paintings for customs, nor did he actually still own a gallery; a last-minute effort from Duchamp managed to bring together a show, albeit less successful than her previous. The trip was not without its victories, however -- a purchase from the Louvre made Kahlo the first Mexican artist in their collection, and the doyennes of the Parisian art scene welcomed her warmly -- including Picasso, Miro, Schiaparelli, and Rahon. Despite Breton" insistence that Kahlo" work was Surrealist, she rejected this label, writing to a friend after her show of "this bunch of coocoo lunatics and very stupid surrealists" who "are so crazy 'intellectual' and rotten that I can't even stand them anymore."; Though the canonical categorization of Kahlo" work is frequently debated, she was not the only one who felt this way about the defining characteristics of the Surrealist movement – a growing skepticism had begun to haunt Paalen as an ideological shift began to lead him to reject the hold of Freud" rigid theories. Rahon and Kahlo were fast friends, with a mutual understanding of their physical childhood traumas and struggles with mobility and their childlessness as women – and women artists, no less. As political unrest loomed, Kahlo invited Rahon and Paalen to stay with them in Mexico City, an offer that was quickly accepted. Paalen, Rahon, and their close friend and patron Sulzer set off for New York, intending to head directly to Mexico but changing course to the Northwest after being intrigued by native artworks after a chance encounter at a gallery. Meandering down the West Coast, Paalen, Rahon, and Sulzer were profoundly affected by local artists, with Paalen and Rahon continuing to be drawn to totemic and indigenous works and Sulzer likewise influenced by the vast landscapes. Finally, at the end of 1939, the three of them settled into a home Kahlo and her husband Rivera had rented for them in the San Angel section of Mexico City, directly next to their home, Casa Azul. Upon the Paalens settling in Mexico City, Duchamp wrote intermittently to Peggy Guggenheim and Julien Levy, passionately promoting the work of his friend Paalen: Dear Julien, P. S. to my recent letter: Do you know Paalen's work? I suppose that you have seen some reproductions. Among the young Surr[ealists]'s, he ought to come out – he paints scenes "for" a sorcerer (you never see the witches). All this to hope that you might show him in N.Y. Levy was impressed and arranged an exhibit for Paalen in New York. It was well attended, including Pollock, Gottlieb, and Motherwell. One notable absence, however, was Trotsky. Though an introduction was frequently encouraged, Paalen refused, accusing his friends of ";pseudo-religious paternal fixations of Surrealists, who didn’t dispose of the means to find other ways out of the crisis Marxism left in their minds than to find a new political father."; This repudiation was to become another marker of Paalen" dissatisfaction with Surrealism. He announced his public separation from the group and divorced himself from Breton in 1942 with the publication of the first issue of DYN, an art magazine centered on philosophical art theory with scathing criticism of Surrealism and all it stood for. Though only six issues of DYN were produced between 1942 and 1944, the publication was profoundly influential as the center of the art world transitioned from Surrealism to Abstract Expressionism following the end of the second World War. With Paalen as editor, the magazine included poems from Cesar Moro, photographs and paintings from Florence Arquin, writings from Henry Miller and Anais Nïn, art from Henry Moore, and the contributions of many others. Rahon" painting career began to achieve widespread recognition during the DYN years, with her first solo show at Galeria de Arte Mexicano in Mexico City in 1944. She would frequently exhibit in North America and Europe for the remainder of her life. Her personal works – gifts to friends and pieces in honor of them – most aptly illustrate the magical and indescribable parts of this catalytic time in history and art. Just as she was Eluard" L’Abeielle Noire, she became Kahlo" jirafa (giraffe) for her long legs and large brown eyes. Rahon, in turn, memorialized Kahlo in her painting Ballad for Frida, dedicated to ";Frida aux Yeux d'hirondelle"; (Frida in the eyes of a swallow), inhabited by scenes from their friendship and animal talismans from their years together – owls, birds, cats, and of course, giraffes. It" with great pleasure that we present in this sale several gifts to Florence Arquin from both Rahon and Paalen, tokens of their affection and markers of their development as artists. Rahon gave Arquin two works: Le Chat (1943) and Untitled (1946). Le Chat (1943), a personalized drawing inscribed pour Florence son amie Mexico, comes to life with lines that seem to vibrate off the page, both detailed and fantastically obscure. Cats, familiars to the sorcerers of Surrealism, snake in and out of the photos Arquin took and carefully preserved in her scrapbook from her time with Kahlo, Rivera, Paalen, and Rohan. Untitled (1946) is colorful and topographical, with a note of the genuine tenderness between them: in the lower right corner, after the dedication, the word cariñoso is inscribed – caring. Paalens’ gifts are equally intimate and demonstrate the breadth of his skill as an artist. Two untitled works from 1943 are each emotive and meticulous: the first with swirls of color and movement, the second stormy and reflexive. A third piece, Untitled (1947), is an excellent example of the influence of his environment and interest in indigenous culture, with thin lines of gouache carefully painted on an indigenous Mexican Amate paper. The years surrounding these exchanges were tumultuous for the couple; through Rahon" career taking flight and the buzzy years of DYN, they ultimately decided to divorce in 1947. Rahon would become a Mexican citizen and create screenplays for ballet and film. On the night of the opening of her exhibition at Galeria Pecanins in Mexico City in 1969, she fell and fractured her right hip again, leading her to retreat to a life of relative isolation. This time, she denied any medical intervention, remembering the pain of her childhood. Her continued isolation (save for a few guests, including Sulzer) contributed to the increasingly younger art world overlooking her work, despite her role in developing Mexican art and her influential circle of friends. Her final solo exhibition was in 1986, and she died the following year at a nursing home in Mexico City after refusing to eat. History all too often lets the careers of female artists retreat to the shadows of their male counterparts. Still, Rahon was a force of nature, and with the recent reconsideration of the art world may finally be getting her due. Paalen" prolific career continued, and he eventually made amends with Breton, who acknowledged that any criticism of Surrealism that he had was valid. He became increasingly interested in archaeology and contributed to ideas of the matrilinear social structure of ancient societies in Mesoamerica. Paalen" genius never dampened, but his bipolar disposition made it increasingly difficult for him to function, while his obsessive collection of indigenous artifacts started attracting rumors of illicit activity. The last years of his life were spent in an old house and studio in a small town in Morelos, Mexico, where he was supported by his close friends Gordon Onslow Ford and Sulzer. He was found dead of a gunshot wound to the head in 1959. Though Rahon and Paalen" relationship was at times tempestuous, their connection – and that of their circle of friends – left an indelible mark on the art world. Arquin" careful preservation of these works allows us a look inside the inner life of the avant-garde. The gifts are, in a way, a complete picture of the couple, if only for a moment: offering the full spectrum of color and darkness, form and lack thereof, image and anxiety, during a time when their own lives were rapidly changing shape.

Paris Librairie Loliée Wolfgang Paalen Peinture - Objets - Dessins novembredécembre 1960 n. p. no. 11. BIBLIOGRAPHIE A. Neufert Wolfgang Paalen Im Inneren des Wals Tepoztlán 1999 p. 337 no. 53.35 (illustré à l'envers identifié comme Le jockey du zinc avec une description erronée). Docteur Andreas Neufert a confirmé l'authenticité de cette oeuvre. Un certificat d'authenticité pourra être délivré à la charge de l'acquéreur. Wolfgang Paalen est certainement l'une des figures les plus influentes des avant-gardes d'entre-deux guerres en Europe et en Amérique. A la fois peintre théoricien ethnologue collectionneur d'art précolombien et amérindien son apport à la création subconsciente et l'étude des arts indigènes eut un impact considérable dans le développement du Surréalisme en Europe mais aussi dans les prémisses de l'Expressionnisme abstrait aux Etats-Unis. Né en 1905 à Vienne Wolfgang Paalen grandit au sein d'une famille influente de la bourgeoisie viennoise et berlinoise. Son père Gustav ingénieur constitue la fortune familiale en perfectionnant divers produits ménagers et assemble une importante collection de tableaux de Titien à Renoir à travers laquelle Wolfgang Paalen a ses premiers contacts artistiques. Après s'être formé à Rome Berlin et Munich Paalen s'installe en 1928 à Paris où il s'éloigne de ses premières influences impressionnistes et expressionnistes pour arriver à l'abstraction dès 1932. Paalen évolue au sein des avant-gardes parisiennes à travers le groupe Abstraction-Création avec Jean Hélion à partir de 1930 puis du groupe Surréaliste avec André Breton que Paalen rencontre en 1935. C'est durant les années 1930 que Paalen parvient à son style de maturité influencé dans ses tableaux abstraits par l'art cycladique et dans ses grands paysages surréalistes par le subconscient. En outre il développe à partir de 1936 la technique du 'fumage' utilisée dans la présente oeuvre consistant à parcourir la toile avec une flamme pour créer des motifs de fumée aléatoires. Sans doute l'innovation majeure de Paalen cette technique sera plus tard reprise par Salvador Dali et Yves Klein. Partageant sa vie entre le Mexique et les Etats-Unis à partir de 1939 Paalen revient en France en 1951 et entame une série d'oeuvres abstraites gestuelles connues sous le nom de 'peintures telluriques' dans laquelle s'inscrit La rosée de mai. 'Provenant de la terre' cette série s'inspire de l'art rupestre que le peintre découvre en 1933 dans les grottes d'Altamira en Espagne puis dans les environs de Saint Cirq La Popie en Occitanie où Paalen passe ses étés avec André Breton dans les années 1950. Dans la présente oeuvre les tons ocres gris et mauves de larrière plan suggèrent une paroi à la fois minérale et végétale tandis que le fumage et les épaisses lignes blanches appliquées directement du tube puis au couteau évoquent la stylisation de l'art pariétal. La rosée de mai vise une démarche artistique s'inspirant du primitif et de l'organique similaire à l'approche de Jean Dubuffet et sa série des Texturologies à la même époque. Issue d'une important collection parisienne La rosée de mai fut présentée dans la dernière exposition importante du vivant de Paalen à la galerie parisienne Galanis-Hentschel en 1954. Cinq ans plus tard isolé et démuni l'artiste met fin à ses jours au Mexique clôturant un chapitre important de l'histoire du surréalisme et de l'abstraction.
