Vêtues de bijoux et de soie, deux courtisanes traversent la Suburre. Le ciel blanc, la pierre blanche, en plein soleil. Elles s'approchent l'une de l'autre, et malgré l'immensité de la place déserte, elles s'effleurent en passant.

Dressed in jewels and silk, two courtesans cross the Suburra. The white sky, the white stone, under the sun. They move closer to each other, and despite the immensity of the empty plaza, they graze each other in passing.

– Claude Cahun.

Claude Cahun, born Lucy Schwob in 1894, was a french surrealist poet and photographer. Both political and personal, her work reflects androgyny, dismantling gender norms. She wrote : "Neuter is the only gender that always suits me."

Lesbian and Jewish, she engaged in the resistance movement alongside her romantic and creative partner Marcel Moore (née Suzanne Malherbe), illustrator and photographer, creating together anti-nazi fliers and pamphlets under the pseudonym Der Soldat Ohne Namen (The Soldier With No Name), made to discourage germans troops. They would dress up and strategically hide those fliers for German soldiers to find.

Cahun and Moore lived together on the island of Jersey where Cahun died in 1954, aged 60, of a cardiac arrest.

Claude Cahun

Vanessa, our illustration blogger, changed her views on the value of studying art history over the past few years studying art in college and fell in love the the gender bending images of Surrealist photographer Claude Cahun #MarywoodArt #ArtHistory

When I first realized I had to take art history courses in order to complete my Bachelor of Arts in Illustration degree, I was admittedly dejected. I just didn’t see the point in looking to the past nor did I understand how it would enhance my artistic skills. Now that I’ve taken four art history courses, I’ve come to realize that I am fascinated by art history and all that there is to know about…

De l’Eros surréaliste à l’androgynie avec Claude Cahun

« Je sens comme si je les voyais, mes cuisses maigrir d’une sueur de fièvre, douche parfois brulante, parfois glacée, toujours inattendue. Mes genoux vidés, les os dissous, vêtu d’un parchemin lucide, se gonflent, flottante vessies de porc. Mon cœur alenti sonne un glas funèbre, puis bat bruyamment comme un tocsin. Il devient mobile, se promène dans mon ventre, y éclate en coliques profondes. À chaque secousse, une conscience tombe, pulvérisée. Peu à peu, je m’allège. Bref répit ! Mon cœur se gonfle outrageusement et s’emplit d’hydrogène. Gros ballon rouge et bleu, il monte au bout d’un fil.

Aveux non avenus, planche I, 1929-1930, Claude Cahun et Moore. Tirage gélatino-argentique (photomontage), 40 x 25 cm

Marcel Moore

Marcel Moore was the romantic and creative partner of Claude Cahun. I will be using singular they/them pronouns in reference to Marcel Moore in this post, as they were described, along with Claude Cahun, as a “Lesbian partners known for cross dressing.” They changed their name to Marcel Moore, and often participated in masked photoshoots, much the same as we see with Claude Cahun.

Marcel Moore would work on many projects with Claude, often illustrating the work that Claude Cahun would write. In addition to this, Marcel Moore was also an activist resisting the Nazis. They were fluent in German, and would often deliver anti-nazi propaganda into German camps.

They, along with Claude Cahun, were described as a “proto-transgender”, and fell outside the binary in all of their work. This has lead to most scholars assuming the two of them were cisgender as a default.

[Oltre lo specchio][Silvia Mazzucchelli]

Oltre lo specchio di Silvia Mazzucchelli introduce ai lettori italiani la figura di Claude Cahun e la sua tensione allo scardinamento dei riferimenti culturali e sociali.

Claude Cahun (1894-1954) è un’artista, fotografa e scrittrice vissuta nella Francia della prima metà del Novecento, in pieno fervore surrealista. Al centro della sua ricerca artistica e letteraria vi sono i temi dell’identità, del superamento dei confini di genere e delle proprie origini ebraiche in un contesto sociale fortemente antisemita. Nei suoi scatti radicali ed enigmatici ritrae se stessa…
