Beskrivning
En surrealistisk scen av Remedios Varo skildrar en figur som ägnar sig åt alkemiska sysslor i en fantastisk arkitektonisk miljö. Den dämpade färgpaletten och det förvrängda perspektivet skapar en utomjordisk atmosfär.
Remedios Varo (1908-1963) var en spansk-mexikansk surrealistisk målare, känd för sin distinkta blandning av vetenskap, mystik och drömlika bilder. Hon föddes i Spanien och flydde till Mexiko under andra världskriget, där hon fortsatte att utveckla sin unika konstnärliga vision. Hennes verk har ofta androgyna figurer som ägnar sig åt alkemiska eller vetenskapliga sysslor i fantastiska miljöer. I "Alchemy or the Useless Science" sitter en ensam figur, draperad i en rutig mantel, framför en märklig apparat. Figurens hållning antyder djup koncentration, som om den är engagerad i ett delikat experiment. Miljön är ett rum med ett skarpt vikande rutigt golv, vilket ger en känsla av förvrängt perspektiv. Bakom figuren reser sig en tornliknande struktur som liknar en korsning mellan en katedral och ett laboratorium, komplett med spiraltrappor och intrikata mekanismer. Färgpaletten är dämpad, dominerad av bruna, ockra och krämfärger, vilket bidrar till målningens utomjordiska atmosfär. Himlen är fylld med virvlande moln, vilket antyder osedda krafter i spel. Målningen inbjuder betraktaren att begrunda kunskapens natur, strävan efter det ouppnåeliga och skärningspunkten mellan vetenskap och andlighet.

Artist Biography
Remedios Varo
Varo was named after the Virgin of Remedies, as a remedy for an older sister who had died. Her full name was Maria de los Remedios Alicia Rodriga Varo y Uranga. Her father was an engineer who taught her to draw using his technical drafting tools. Her mother enrolled her in Catholic school in Madrid, which she spent most of her time rebelling against. Both influences appear in the paintings: precision engineering inhabited by mystics.
She graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando in 1930, one of the few women in her class. In Barcelona she fell in with the Surrealists and, through them, with the poet Benjamin Peret, who became her partner. When Paris fell, she was jailed on suspicion of espionage. After her release she and Peret boarded one of the last ships allowed to leave France, arriving in Mexico in 1941.
In Mexico City she became inseparable from the English Surrealist Leonora Carrington. Together with the photographer Kati Horna, the three were called the Three Witches. They attended meetings of Gurdjieff and Ouspensky followers, studied alchemy and Jungian dream theory, and put ink in tapioca pearls to serve as caviar at dinner parties for Octavio Paz.
She did not paint prolifically until the last thirteen years of her life, once she was financially stable and free of wartime displacement. The paintings from this period are meticulous: tiny figures in architectural spaces that obey their own physics, conducting experiments with starlight or weaving the fabric of the universe from threads pulled out of the air.
Her posthumous retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in Mexico City in 1971 drew more visitors than shows by Diego Rivera or David Alfaro Siqueiros. She had died of a heart attack in 1963, at fifty-four, at the peak of her working life.
