Artist: Antoine Mayo (1905-1990)
Antoine MAYO (1905-1990) Surrealist composition, oil on canvas, 55 x 46 cm, signed lower right.

Mayo, whose real name was Antoine Malliarakis, was a Greek painter of French culture (naturalized French in his later years), born February 15, 1905 in Port-Saïd and died October 1, 1990 in Seine-Port. A friend of Prévert and Desnos, he is generally classified as a Surrealist, a movement in which he actively participated without ever officially joining, and also known for his work as set and costume designer on masterpieces such as Les Enfants du paradis, Casque d'or and Hiroshima mon amour.

In 2012, art historian Evelyne Yeatman-Eiffel published the catalog raisonné of his work. From Oct. 19, 2016 to Jan. 16, 2017, two of Mayo's paintings are included in the major exhibition "Art et Liberté: Rupture, Guerre et Surréalisme en Égypte (1938-1948)" at the Centre national d'art et de culture Georges-Pompidou, which will also be shown at the Tate Gallery.
