Description

Fernand Léger rediscovered

This lavishly illustrated catalogue spans Fernand Léger’s entire career, from his Cubist-influenced early works to his exuberant, large-format late canvases. It also traces his remarkable impact upon American art, principally upon Roy Lichtenstein and Ellsworth Kelly, but also on further artists such as Robert Rauschenberg, Al Held, Jasper Johns, James Rosenquist, Frank Stella, and Andy Warhol. The catalogue includes essays by Yve-Alain Bois, Raphael Bouvier, Philippe Büttner, Christian Derouet, and Brigitte Hedel-Samson.
