All three had recently fled war-torn Europe and together they shared memories of Paris, Surrealism, the Spanish Civil War, and the outbreak of World War II. Surreal Friends celebrates the friendship of these three women, with the first substantial display of Carringon's work in Britain for 19 years, and the first ever comprehensive showing of works by her friends Varo and Horna in the UK. Fittingly, the exhibition is held in Chichester, near West Dean, the estate of the Surrealist patron Edward James, a supporter and friend of all three artists, who spent much time in Mexico, both in the capital and in his Surrealist garden Las Pozas in Xilitla.
