	Tate Papers Autumn 2005
		Eileen Agar had been one of the English stars of the surrealism exhibition, even though she had apparently not thought of herself as a 'surrealist' until the organizers of the show - Roland Penrose and Herbert Read – came to her studio and declared her to be one.
		Agar was of course primarily a painter and object-maker.
		Agar always claimed, however, that her art was incompatible with motherhood: one might perhaps see Lee Miller's photograph of Agar 'pregnant with her camera' (the phrase was apparently Picasso's) not only as a good joke but also as a keen insight into the nature of Agar's creativity.

		As a little girl Eileen Agar travelled from Argentina to Britain accompanied by a cow and an orchestra, because her rich and fashionable mother believed that fresh milk and good music were essential to her well-being.
		The colours are Agar's flesh browns, greens, golds and creams, and the blue sky and sea run into each other.
		Agar says she acquired the feathers - osprey and ostrich - from her mother, who used to wear them in headdresses.

		Eileen Forrester Agar was born in 1904 in Buenos Aires of British parents, and she came to England in 1906.
		Although Agar was greatly influenced by the Surrealists, her achievement was to draw from both Surrealism and Abstraction and to create a unique style suited to her chosen subject matter.
		In 1965, Agar abandoned oil paints for acrylics, and her paintings took on a new vibrancy.
