Lucette Hafner

Born in 1926, Lucette Hafner grew up in the 1930s and was inspired by the artistic atmosphere of the time. During the 1930s, many political ideologies such as Marxist socialism, capitalist democracy and the totalitarianism of communism and fascism were engaged in power struggles and represented the political atmosphere of the time. n Europe, surrealism continued to prevail and gained influence throughout the world. Leading artists took the ideas of surrealism and incorporated them into their radical political philosophies, creating a new kind of magical realism. This resulted in the work of artists such as Frida Kahlo and Diego Riviera in Mexico.
