Alchemy, Jung, and Remedios Varo offers a depth psychological
analysis of the art and life of Remedios Varo, a Spanish surrealist
painter. The book uses Varo's paintings in a revolutionary way: to
critique the patriarchal underpinnings of Jungian psychology,
alchemy, and Surrealism, illuminating how Varo used painting to
address cultural complexes that silence female expression. The book
focuses on how the practice of alchemical psychology, through the
power of imagination and the archetypal Feminine, can lead to
healing and transformation for individuals and culture. Alchemy,
Jung, and Remedios Varo offers the first in-depth psychological
treatment of the role alchemy played in the friendship between Varo
and Leonora Carrington-a connection that led to paintings that
protest the pitfalls of patriarchy. This unique book will be of
great interest for academics, scholars, and post-graduate students
in the fields of analytical psychology, art history, Surrealism,
cultural criticism, and Jungian studies.
