La Cuna by Leonora Carrington

"As I remember La Cuna, my father, my mother and in particular Leonora, what comes to mind more so than its intellectual analysis is a phrase often employed by my parents and Leonora herself when outsiders would ask them how to determine the value or significance of a work of art. They would say that ultimately what makes works of art relevant is the life experiences embedded in them. Thus to quantify their worth they would always assert, that "only that which has the ability to become unforgetable is truly important and valuable".


For me La Cuna and my childhood memories spent around this object, surrounded by the loving affection of my family - my father, my mother, Leonora, Chiki, Gabriel, Pablo, Claudia, Ricardo, and my dogs, cats, pigeons and the fountain on Tabasco Street are what are most unforgettable. La Cuna has also allowed me to share these lasting memories with my own family and childres, Katy and Ivan."
