Eileen Agar, a British artist known for her diverse talents, is being introduced to American audiences through her first major solo exhibition in the United States, titled “Eileen Agar: Flowering of a Wing: Works, 1936-1989,” at Andrew Kreps Gallery. The exhibit showcases her paintings, which exhibit a contemporary quality and a strong use of color, particularly shades of blue. The paintings often feature single forms created from smaller shapes and motifs, reflecting Agar's fusion of Surrealist imagination and Cubist structure. One notable piece, "Chess Head" from 1970, features a cylindrical head reminiscent of chess pieces, birthday cakes, and toys. Another work, "Flowering of a Wing" from 1966, portrays a Victorian dressing gown and a scalloped collar, creating a sense of stage lighting and giving the image a vibrant quality. This exhibit aims to shed light on Agar's remarkable artistic contributions, which have been relatively unknown in the United States.
