Le Paris de la modernité (1905–1925)
Exhibition catalogue for Le Paris de la modernité (1905–1925), held at the Petit Palais, Paris, from November 2023 to April 2024:
From the Belle Époque to the Roaring Twenties, Paris continued, more than ever before, to attract artists from all around the world. This cosmopolitan city was both a capital where innovation thrived and a place of tremendous cultural influence. Paris would maintain this status despite the reorganisation of the international scene following the First World War, a period during which women played a major role, which has too often been forgotten. This exhibition demonstrate the dynamism of the period by highlighting the ruptures and brilliant advances that occurred, both artistic and technological. Through fashion, cinema, photography, painting, sculpture, and drawing, as well as dance, design, architecture, and industry, this exhibition showcases the rich creativity of the period.
The catalogue, published by Paris Musées, is designed by Lisa Sturacci, and set in Persona (Abyme, 2022) and Cardone (205FT, 2021).
