In 1946, he took part in the great exhibition of the Museum of Modern Art. He was the general secretary of the journal Plans.

Some tapestries have already been acquired by the Museum of Modern Art , the Mobilier National , the Manufacture des Gobelins and one of them , the " Ceres " by the Polish State.
