Xenia Cage
Xenia Cage (born Xenia Andreyevna Kashevaroff, August 15, 1913 – September 26, 1995) was an American painter, sculptor, bookbinder, conservator, and musician notable for her surrealist mobiles and artistic collaborations.
Cage’s work has been described as on the “cutting edge of surrealism in sculpture” for her time.〔Rosemont, P. (1998). ‘’Surrealist women: An international anthology’’. Austin: University of Texas Press.〕 From 1935 to 1945, Cage was married to the musician and composer John Cage and performed in his percussion ensemble throughout their marriage. Cage is believed to have been the "female performer" who smashed a lime ricky bottle into a can of broken glass at the culmination of John Cage's ''Construction in Metal''.〔Silverman, Kenneth (2010). ''Begin again: A biography of John Cage''. New York: Alfred A. Knopf.〕 In 1943, Cage exhibited an abstract mobile in Peggy Guggenheim's show ''Exhibition by 31 Women'' at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. The next year, Cage had a solo exhibition of her mobiles at the Julien Levy Gallery in New York.〔 Cage notably collaborated with artists Joseph Cornell and Marcel Duchamp as a bookbinder, and designed a chess table in tandem with a set created by Max Ernst.〔List, Larry. 2005. ''The imagery of chess revisited''. New York: Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum.〕 Cage also worked as a conservator at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in New York.〔

"Marta" Kashevarof (Bolshanin), and sister of Cyril Andrew Kashevarof, Sr, Nina Kashevarof, Mary Sasha Andrevna Calvin (Kashevarof, Lydia Brewer (Kashevarof), Nadja Vestal Triplet (Kashevaroff)and 1 other.
