Description
A classic example of Surrealism, Yves Tanguy's 'Indefined Divisibility' (1942) presents a dreamlike world populated with biomorphic forms and machine-like structures under a pale blue sky.
Yves Tanguy's 1942 oil on canvas, 'Indefined Divisibility', is a classic example of Surrealist painting. Tanguy, a self-taught artist, developed a distinctive style characterised by biomorphic forms and dreamlike settings. He was a key figure in the Surrealist movement, which sought to unlock the creative potential of the unconscious mind. His works often feature abstract shapes and objects arranged in illogical, otherworldly compositions. In this painting, a pale blue sky meets a flat, sandy plane populated with bizarre, machine-like structures and amorphous shapes. The objects cast long, dark shadows, enhancing the sense of depth and mystery. The colour palette is muted, dominated by blues, greys, and browns, which contributes to the painting's ethereal and unsettling atmosphere. The composition is carefully balanced, with the larger structures on the right counterweighted by the smaller elements on the left. The overall effect is one of a strange, alien world, inviting the viewer to contemplate the nature of reality and the power of the imagination. Tanguy's unique vision makes 'Indefined Divisibility' a significant work within the Surrealist canon.

Artist Biography
Yves Tanguy
Tanguy was riding a bus through Paris in 1923 when he spotted a painting by Giorgio de Chirico in a gallery window. He became so agitated he jumped off at the next stop and ran back to look at it. He decided on the spot to become a painter. He had no training whatsoever. He was twenty-three.
He was born in Paris in 1900. He briefly joined the merchant navy in 1918 before being drafted into the army, where he met the poet Jacques Prevert, who later introduced him to Andre Breton's Surrealist circle. He joined the Surrealists in 1925 and had his first solo show just two years later, having taught himself everything.
His paintings consistently depict flat, featureless landscapes resembling sea floors or alien terrain, populated by biomorphic forms that look like melted rocks or bones. He never explained them. The palette is muted, the horizons infinite, the atmosphere airless. The same vocabulary of forms appears across decades of work with only gradual variation.
He married the American Surrealist painter Kay Sage in Reno, Nevada, in 1940. They settled in Woodbury, Connecticut, converting an old farmhouse into a studio. He died there in 1955, aged fifty-five.
