Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, Sonia & Robert Delaunay – Correspondences exhibition catalog
Catalog for the exhibition held at the Centre Pompidou, in partnership with the Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian, focusing on the artistic relationships between Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso and Sonia and Robert Delaunay.
The catalog comes in two versions: a Portuguese edition with an orange cover (Correspondência) and a French one with a green cover (Correspondences).
From Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian:
This edition explores the relationship between Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso (1887–1918), Sonia (1885–1979) and Robert Delaunay (1885–1941) based on a selection of the correspondence between the three artists published by Paulo Ferreira in 1972: Correspondance de quatre artistes portugais, Almada-Negreiros, José Pacheco, Souza-Cardozo, Eduardo Vianna avec Robert et Sonia Delaunay (Paris: Presses Universitaires de France).
The catalogue also features images of all the works on display, 17 by Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, five by Sonia and six by Robert Delaunay. The curatorial text by Helena de Freitas and Angela Lampe is also a correspondence between the two curators and introduces the meeting of work that was developed by both in Paris, precisely around the idea of sharing and the relationship created between the two collections: CAM – Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian and Centre Pompidou.
