A major contributor to the Surrealist movement, Meret Oppenheim is considered to be amongst the most important female artists of the 20th century. A painter and sculptor of exceptional wit and imagination, her fame and importance has much to do with powerfully surreal works such as the Déjeuner en fourrure, a teacup, saucer and spoon covered in fur, and Ma gouvernante, a pair of high-heeled shoes trussed up like a chicken, both of which make provocative statements about the nature of sexuality and society.
