		In her life and art Fini advanced an ideal of the "autonomous, absolute woman," who was beautiful, domineering and "governed by passion." Although she had numerous suitors, she refused to marry.
		Fini's work may in fact be seen as a response to the patriarchal assumptions of Surrealism.
		Fini places herself, or other women, at the center of her paintings as images of female power and autonomy.

	Leonor Fini (1907 - 1996) : Biography
		Dali and Artaud, Fini saw the group's obsession with treatise and theories not as radical, but as a manifestation of what Dali called "typical petit bourgeois mentality".
		For instance, Fini claimed to use images from her subconscious, adopted Georges Bataille's philosophy of a return to the mythological, spiritual and visionary aspects of primal cultures.
		The women in her art are at once beautiful and alluring, yet powerful and threatening, embodying not only a female sexuality but that which had been thought of as exclusively male.

	Leonor Fini, Women and the Surrealist Movement
