American artist Kay Sage and her lover, French artist Yves Tanguy, left Europe in 1939, at the same time Adolf Hitler was making his mad, murderous dash across the Continent. Surrealist painters were under attack by the Third Reich, as were scores of other painters who refused to submit to the Nazi way of thinking.
Leaving Paris behind, at one point joined by philanthropist Peggy Guggenheim, they were able to get themselves and many of their fellow artists to America.
But while artists were coming to the United States, few were aware the American Nazi Party was seeking to sow division and mistrust so Germany could conquer America.
Kay Sage and Yves Tanguy, wanting to marry in Reno, Nevada, planned a six-week vacation to establish their residency in the state. Their journey took them from Reno, across Nevada, into southern Utah and Arizona, as well as through the Navajo Reservation.
This is their story. Barely staying one step ahead of Nazi agents, yet finding many friends and allies across the West, Kay Sage and Yves Tanguy endured many mishaps, adventures, and more as they came together, fusing their futures, both in truth and spirit.
