Out of town (cont)<br />
Dreaming oneself awake, an exhibition of work<br />
by Eileen Agar RA, is at Farleys Gallery<br />
from the 20th. She was the only British<br />
woman to be invited to exhibit her work at<br />
the 1936 International Surrealist Exhibition,<br />
which led to a lifelong friendship with Roland<br />
Penrose and Lee Miller and, eventually,<br />
visits to their Sussex farmhouse home. The<br />
exhibition (Sundays only) continues until the<br />
15th of July. Join leading authority on British<br />
Surrealism, Michel Remy, for a discussion<br />
on her work on Sunday 20th <strong>May</strong> (7pm, see<br />
farleyshouseandgallery.co.uk for tickets).<br />
Problem<br />
In Brighton<br />
Agar’s work also features in Virginia Woolf:<br />
an exhibition inspired by her writings; a major<br />
touring exhibition arriving at Pallant House<br />
on the 26th. Featuring 80 female artists<br />
working from 1854 to the present day, this<br />
timely exhibition ‘seeks to show how her<br />
perspectives on feminism and creativity<br />
have remained relevant to a community of<br />
creative women across time…’ Expect works<br />
by Winifred Nicholson, Vanessa Bell,<br />
Sandra Blow, Gluck and many more besides.<br />
Unmissable. (Until September the 16th.)<br />
