Kay Sage and Yves Tanguy: Ring of Iron, Ring of Wool

Edited by Victoria Noel-Johnson, Marzina Marzetti.

Kay Sage and Yves Tanguy: Ring of Iron, Ring of Wool

A chronicle of the Surrealist art couple famed for their alien landscapes and biomorphic forms

This volume delves into the fecund creative partnership between American artist Kay Sage (1898–1963) and French-American artist Yves Tanguy (1900–55), who were known for generating eerie landscapes sparsely populated with biomorphic life forms. They also married in 1940.
In this account of their relationship, particular attention is cast toward Sage, whose legacy has long been obscured by the better-known Tanguy, a key figure of French Surrealism. A visual chronology charts the various stages of Sage’s practice in Italy and Paris before returning to New York in 1939. The book also reflects upon Tanguy’s premature death in 1955 and Sage’s subsequent choice to avidly promote and safeguard his legacy at the price of her own rising star. Over 50 images of works by Sage and Tanguy are supplemented by an abundance of new scholarship.


PRAISE AND REVIEWS

Hyperallergic

Sarah Rose Sharp

Whether a romance for the ages or a cautionary case of dual obsession, 'Ring of Iron, Ring of Wool' is a detailed and fascinating recollection of two artistic lives that grew together as one, producing a fantastical oeuvre that captures the surreality that attends all human attempts to understand and connect with one other.

Indulge

Ghalib Dhalla

Delves into the enigmatic world of the Surrealist power couple celebrated for their otherworldly landscapes and organic forms...eerie compositions teemed with biomorphic life.
