Yves Tanguy
French, 1900–1955
BiographyYves Tanguy is known for producing strange, alien landscapes that evoke a sense of confusion in the viewer. In Flashing Flame, metallic forms dominate a murky grey landscape. We are forced to question what we are looking at; these central figures are not organic, but seem familiar, possibly inspired by the natural world.
