About the Item

Sevres - Boulogne-Billancourt, La Ceramique Independente (Sevres - Boulogne-Billancourt, The Independent Ceramic), French Book by Florence Slitine, 2007. Preface by Emmanuel Bréon and David Caméo. What happens when Emmanuel Bréon - Chief Curator of the Museum of the 1930s in Boulogne-Billancourt, and David Caméo, Director of the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, conceive the project to discover the ceramic heritage of their respective cities? They decided to show them in a joint exhibition and this book. The book writing was entrusted to Florence Slitine, project manager at The Manufacture. With the help of collectors and several museums who lend their pieces and exchange their knowledge, this is the first book that takes stock of the work of these artists. From the end of the 19th century to the 1960s, those industrial ceramic artists worked in Boulogne-Billancourt and the town of Sèvres, on the fringes of the productions of the famous Manufacture. It allows them to restore, in their geographical context, the work of leading artists, to discover ceramists hitherto unknown, and to take stock of the production carried out in Sèvres but outside the National Manufacture. This book publishes unpublished works, marks, and documents, which will fascinate lovers of modern ceramics. It contains entries relating to the following 25 artists: Paul Beyer, Berthe Cazin, Collinot and Cie, Albert Dammouse, Edouard Dammouse, Taxile Doat, Roger Dollé, Fau and Guillard, Maurice Gensoli, Gentil and Bourdet, Marcel Giberot, Keramos, Frédéric Kiefer, Raoul Lachenal, Jean Mayodon, M.F. ceramic workshops, Milet factory, Jacques Ponchelet and Abel Léger, Robj, Georges Serré, Vinsare new earthenware factory, Amalric Walter. This is a beautiful coffee table art book. Features: Title: Sevres . Boulogne-Billancourt La Ceramique Independente. Author: Emmanuel Breon and David Cameo. Hardcover book.

  • The Cars in Posters, French Book by Thierry Favre, 2007
    By Modern History
    Located in Atlanta, GA
    L'Auto s'affiche (The Cars in Posters), French Book by Thierry Favre, 2007. Prefaced by Louis Schweitzer, this book unveils a formidable collection of graphic posters illustrating automobile history. This retrospective allows an understanding of artistic trends and the evolution of advertising while discovering manufacturers, luxury models, casual vehicles, trucks, coaches, and other racing cars. The golden age of the graphic poster began in 1880 in the railway tourism sector. The photographic poster has been successful and has dominated the market since the 1970s. The poster is related to the development of the automobile industry at the beginning of the 20th century. It expresses an advertising message but also becomes a mode of artistic expression in its own right. Thanks to the talent of artists like Pal, Mich, Vincent, Mauzan, Geo Ham, Kow, Cassandre, Savignac, and many others, the poster strikes the imagination of passers-by. It entertains, inspires dreams, and innovates. The graphic print expresses all the major artistic trends, from Art Nouveau to Art Deco. It is paradoxical to note that the woman's omnipresence in the image largely contributed to the birth of the myth of the Automobile. After World War I, the automotive landscape changed a lot. The 416 makes counted around 1910 disappeared for different reasons: non-competitiveness of assemblers, too rapid technical development, and damage correlated with the conflict. On the other hand, new brands resulting, in particular, from the formidable evolution of military aviation from 1915 to 1919 appear: Voisin, Farman, and Hotchkiss wanted to branch out from machine guns. Curiously, the big car...

Einstein's surrealism, Picasso the Augustus and Cocteau the White Clown, Stravinsky, and Freud have not left her. With the lamé shirt...
