Andre Delfau
Born in Paris, France in 1914, Andre Delfau was an acclaimed stage, set, and costume designer. His career spanned from the 1930s to the 1980s, with international recognition. In addition to his design work, Delfau pursued his passion for painting, known for its vibrant colors, keen use of line, and influences from Cubism and Surrealism. He collaborated with renowned fashion houses such as Balmain, Jean Patou, and Balenciaga, while creating sets and costumes for prominent opera and ballet productions worldwide. Notably, he designed the elaborate stage sets and costumes for the 1986 PBS television production of "Die Fledermaus." Delfau resided in Paris and Chicago, frequently drawing inspiration from his travels to Morocco, particularly the Jemaa el-Fna market in Marrakesh. In his later years, he married Chicago ballet impresario Ruth Page. Andre Delfau passed away in Chicago in 2000 at the age of 86.
