	Yves Tanguy Summary
		Yves Tanguy (1900-1955) was a French surrealist painter who specialized in strange osseous and vegetal formations placed in a barren, lunarlike landscape or an eerie underwater setting.
		In 1939 Tanguy moved to America and settled with his wife, Kay Sage, in a farmhouse in Woodbury, Conn. His colors became richer, and his objects began to loom larger, perhaps partially as the result of a trip to Arizona.
		Tanguy quickly began to develop his own unique painting style, giving his first solo exhibition in Paris in 1927, and marrying his first wife later that same year.

	Queensland Art Gallery - Yves Tanguy
		Yves Tanguy became a painter in 1923, after seeing a painting by Giorgio de Chirico.
		Tanguy was attracted to the Surrealists' fascination with the inner world of the subconscious and arbitrary associations, where objects coexisted in bizarre and illogical conjunctions.
		Recent scholarship on Tanguy's early work has demonstrated links with Celtic mythologies of metamorphosis in which wandering beings occupy worlds where no distinction is made between creation, life and death.

	Yves Tanguy and The New Subject in Painting : Page 2 : Gordon Onslow Ford
		Tanguy spent much of his waking life seemingly indifferent to his surroundings, as if his attention were elsewhere.
		Tanguy's studio was in the corner next to the window in his one room apartment, at 23 Rue du Moulin Vert.
		Tanguy spoke of the year that the paints were made as if they were wine (the 1934 paints were a bit too oily, etc.) There was only enough room in his studio, and in his mind, to make one painting at a time.

	Yves Tanguy Cosmopolis
		Tanguy was born in 1900 in Paris as the son of a former captain who was employed in the Maritime Ministry.
		Yves was a very quiet and at the same time anarchistic man. Allegedly, after having visited a de Chirico exhibition at the Galérie Paul Guillaume in Paris, he spontaneously decided to become a painter.
		Tanguy's form of expression, developed in the mid 1920s, largely remained the same throughout his career, although Karin von Maur demonstrates in her catalogue essay that, in fact, his work shows a greater diversity than expected before.

		Yves Tanguy was inspired to make art by the inner world of dreams and the subconscious mind.
		The style in which Yves Tanguy created this painting is called Surrealism.

	Acquavella: Yves Tanguy
		Tanguy's landscapes, if they are landscapes, are not so much inhospitable as alien: neither vegetable nor mineral but an amalgam of both, absorbed in their own being, facing in another direction.
		Nor is Tanguy the first artist to avoid discussions of his work, and thus by implication seek to place it beyond the pale of language.
		Tanguy's first climactic contact with painting came in 1923 while he was riding on the platform of a bus in the rue La Boétie, and glimpsed two early paintings by de Chirico in the window of Paul Guillaume's gallery.

		Yves Tanguy is one of the great Surrealists and his works appear only infrequently on the auction block.
		Although Tanguy was entirely untrained as an artist, and didn't begin to paint until after his encounter with the de Chirico paintings, he quickly developed a wholly original visual language and style that would place him in the foremost rank of the Surrealist movement.
		According to James Thrall Soby, Tanguy `sometimes talked irritatedly of painters who felt obiged to evolve a new approach every few years, as a means of freshening their own and the public's interest in the work.

		Tanguy gave this painting a title that sounds like a riddle: Through Birds, through Fire, but Not through Glass.

		As a result of his travels during the years spent in the merchant marines (1918–20) and army (1920), Yves Tanguy had stored in his memory the impressions of a host of faraway, exotic places, such as Argentina, Brazil, Tunisia, and the coast of Africa.
		Until Tanguy's departure for the United States in 1939, he remained deeply devoted to Breton; Breton in turn regarded Tanguy as one of the purest painters among the Surrealists.
		If Tanguy's eerie vistas are pure invention, the three-dimensional, biomorphic objects that fill them may have their sources in early reliefs by Jean Arp and the paintings of 1922–23 by Joan Miró, two artists whose works were exhibited in Paris at the time.

		Tanguy’s hauntingly strange images depict landscapes (for lack of a better definition) populated with unreal objects, but painted with a realism that makes them tangbile.
		In some ways Tanguy was the purest of the Surrealist painters, adhering more consistently to the ideals of unconscious imagery as extolled in the Surrealist manifestos and periodicals (to which he contributed).
		Tanguy married painter Kay Sage and moved to the U.S. in 1940, eventually becoming a citizen.

	Guggenheim Collection - Artist - Tanguy - The Sun in Its Jewel Case
		Yves Tanguy arrived at his lunar or submarine morphology in about 1927, and spent the rest of his artistic career exploring and elaborating it without changing its essential character.
		Dolmens and menhirs, stone remnants of prehistoric ages, and fossilized bones were smoothed and tinted in the dream spaces of his canvases.
		The spatial paradox of The Sun in Its Jewel Case depends on the merging of sky and earth, achieved through the continuous gradation of color over the surface—there is no horizon line—and the device of a diagonal line of forms shown receding in perspective from lower right to upper left.

		Yves Tanguy was born in Paris in 1900 and started painting in 1923, inspired by the work of Giorgio de Chirico.
		From then until the late 1930s, Tanguy participated in numerous Surrealist exhibitions and was the subject of several solo shows, including a show in the US in 1934.
		Tanguy's fantastic, evocative visions have not received anything near the attention lavished on artistic compatriots such as Dali, perhaps because the former's near-eremetic lifestyle seemed to put his graphic revelations of the subconscious totally beyond the pale of rational understanding.
