In 2002, Walter Gruen and his wife Anna Alexandra Varsoviano, in memory of their daughter Anna Isabel Gruen Varsoviano, made a donation to MAM of a set of 38 paintings and drawings by Remedios Varo, along another oil, which later would be added. The exhibition is dedicated to this extraordinary fund. "Addicted to Remedios Varo. New legacy 2018" is MAM's first revision based on the recent integration of the archive into its collection. From this exercise emerge findings of a personal and historical nature that reveal traits of the painter's personality - her tendency to collect amulets, stones and symbolic objects - as well as the exchange of thought she held with essential personalities to understand the intellectual atmosphere of her worktime: Octavio Paz, César Moro, Óscar Domínguez, Leonora Carrington and others. The works of Varo that are within this new fund are: As of the steering wheel (1962), Ascent to the analogous mount (1960) and floral Bouquet (1960), in addition to near 250 preparatory drawings and sketches (many of them are works preliminary oil paintings from the MAM collection), and around 506 personal objects. An important part of the archive is made up of almost 500 books from the personal library of Varo, as well as dedicated copies from various authors, thought and life of the artist. The legacy also includes the rights corresponding to the catalog raisonné published by Ediciones Era and the book by Janet A. Kaplan, Viajes inesperados. The art and life of Remedios Varo.
