Icons of the Modern Art - Fayet Designer - The Catalogue

Description

This book is dedicated to the creative section of the exhibition.

A painter, ceramicist, interior designer, and creator of rugs, textiles, and wallpaper, Gustave Fayet developed a unique body of work that bridges the fine arts and the decorative arts. Inspired by nature, color, and the ideal of "total art," his work reveals a personality marked by great freedom. Published to coincide with the exhibition at the Louis Vuitton Foundation, this catalog showcases an exceptional collection of paintings, watercolors, ceramics, textile designs, and documents, including many works never before seen. It restores a major artist to his rightful place, whose inventiveness offers a fresh perspective on the decorative arts of the early 20th century.
