The Imagery of Chess -Surrealism and Chess
July 2007
Mary Callery  (1903-1977) was a sculptress. Like many other artists in France, she left as the German Army approached Paris. Actually her flight to New York was a return to the city of her birth. He parents were rich and her upbringing in Manhattan was privileged, but she was also beautiful, talented and charismatic. She had been married and divorced twice and was believed to have had affairs with both Lèger and Picasso.

Her contribution to the Imagery of Chess show is unknown.
