Indefinite Divisibility by Yves Tanguy
Indefinite Divisibility (1942)
Yves Tanguy | Surrealism | Oil on canvas
Imagine a tower made of stones, bones, and things you've never seen before, standing in a misty desert. That's what Tanguy painted here! It's like a monument on an alien planet that nobody has explored yet.
Did you know? Tanguy never went to art school! He decided to become a painter after seeing a painting by Giorgio de Chirico called The Child's Brain. When World War II began, he moved from France to the United States, and he painted this one there in 1942.
