Claire Vasarely

Claire Vasarely, a life in colour is the first retrospective devoted to Claire Vasarely (born Klára Spinner, 1909-1990). Trained in the 1920s at Műhely, the Hungarian Bauhaus, Claire Vasarely led a remarkable and eclectic career, oscillating between advertising graphics, painting, the creation of textile designs, fashion journalism and tapestry. Completely forgotten in 20th-century art history, this book is the first publication devoted to the artist. It sets out to introduce the reader to her work and to place it at the heart of the artistic modernities of the first half of the 20th century. Text in English, French and Hungarian.
