Description
Claude Cahun: A Life of Radical Art and Freedom Claude Cahun was a courageous Surrealist artist who championed freedom at every turn. Born in Nantes, France, Cahun met her partner, Suzanne Malherbe, in the early 20th century, and the two became a creative and romantic partnership. Together, they transformed themselves into the personas Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore, embarking on a radical journey of art and collaboration that took them from conservative France to vibrant Paris and eventually to Nazi-occupied Jersey during World War II. Cahun and Moore used their art to challenge societal norms and champion freedom, particularly in their secret relationship. Featuring ten photographs by Cahun and Moore, this graphic biography brings their inspiring story to life. With a unique blend of art and history, this book offers a fascinating look at a remarkable woman who refused to be silenced. Ages 12 and up.
