Omschrijving

- A comprehensive monograph on Jean Royère, a key figure of the Avant-garde in the 1950s - More than 150 contemporary photographs of iconic furniture "In the inventive and joyful style Royère developed he artfully blended modernity and classicism with enthusiasm and humor." - Art et Décoration, 2002 By the age of 30 Jean Royère had already established his brilliant career as a decorator. After eschewing the functionalism so in vogue in the 1930s, in 1939, at the Salon des artistes Décorateurs, he presented a boudoir which provocatively marked the return of ornament. A keen observer of contemporary design, Royère was an early discoverer of the Scandinavian and Italian designers - especially Alvar Aalto and Gio Ponti - and their new forms freely associating a set of ornaments, and employed them in variations of extreme virtuosity. From 1931 to 1972, Royère completed over a thousand projects around the globe, from the interior design of the Cité ouvrière d'Aplemont, a workers' housing development in northern France, to the decoration of the palace of the shah of Iran, creating a style evoking a desire for freedom and lightness that would leave its mark on an entire era and many of his contemporary designers. His furniture and objects, notably his emblematic armchairs and Ours sofas, are now the passionate focus of collectors of art and design around the world. Prefaced by Jean-Louis Gaillemin, this new edition enables readers to discover and enrich their knowledge of little-known aspects of Jean Royère's oeuvre, largely thanks to some one hundred new illustrations.
