Toyen

   

  


Toyen was one of the few female surrealists who hung around Paris in the 30s and 40s, as well as helped found the Czech Surrealist Group in Prague. She was a Czech artist who rejected a traditional woman's role and instead lived an independent life, even rejecting her given name and using male pronouns. This is just a little bit of her work.
