22.01.2022 Paul Colin (27 June 1892 in Nancy, France 18 June 1985 in Nogent-sur-Marne) was one of France’s greatest poster artists. Made famous in 1925 by his poster for... the Revue Nègre, which helped to launch the career of Josephine Baker (who became his mistress), he worked for over forty years in the theatre, creating not only posters but also numerous sets and costumes. Very Art déco at the outset, (his Le Tumulte noir is a masterpiece of the genre), his style quickly became highly personal and impossible to categorize: the synthetic accuracy of his portraits, the evocative force of his posters for grand causes so marked him as a master of visual communication that his work today remains relevant and fresh. A student of Eugène Vallin and of Victor Prouvé, he is considered a master of the modern school of poster art. He is the author of more thab 1,400 posters and many theatrical set and costume designs. His work was also part of the painting event in the art competition at the 1948 Summer Olympics. He was the master of painter Philippe Derome and poster artists duo Lefor-Openo An original vintage poster of singer and Broadway star Adelaide Hall by Paul Colin advertising Blackbirds at the Moulin Rouge in 1929, sold on 2 October 2003 at Swann Auction Galleries in New York for $167,500.

18.01.2022 It is painful to think on but true that every little change in attire choices women have wished to make in the past has been met with fierce refusal, resulting ...in derision, and even occasionally, arrest. Those who were born after 1980 never had to deal with the trousers issue, but I certainly remember that it wasn’t until I was a sophomore in High School that my fellow classmates who were female were permitted to wear pants, where only a few years before, even culottes would have gotten a girl suspended from class and sent home. This image is from 1940 in Brooklyn, New York where a group of high school attendees were protesting their not being allowed to wear trousers to class. We do move forward, but not nearly fast enough for some of us. See more

07.01.2022 THE HUG The average length of a hug between two people is 3 seconds. But researchers found something amazing. When a hug lasts 20 seconds, it produces a thera...peutic effect on the body and mind. The reason is that a sincere hug produces a hormone called oxytocin, aka love hormone. This substance has many benefits to our physical and mental health, it helps to relax, feel safe and calm our fears and anxiety. Something we could all use these days. See more

02.01.2022 The genius talent and vision of French Fauvist painter and designer Raoul Dufy 1877-1953. Raoul Dufy, said that his "eyes were made to erase all that was ugl...y." This is a selection of some of his more graphic examples the last image #7 gives your a foretaste of his use of colour and fauvist roots which will be in another post as there are so many I love. #1 Coat "La Perse" by Paul Poiret.Textile design by Raoul Dufy 1911 Dufy's flat, bold graphic patterns were ideally suited to Poiret's planar, abstract designs, like in this coat "La Perse" coat, Met Museum. As well as presenting himself as an artist and patron of the arts, Paul Poiret promoted his fashions as unique and original works of art in and of themselves.He did this by working with artists such as Dufy whom he helped launch his career as a designer ; and others associated with avant-garde modernism. #2 Feuillages et Ramages stylisés, Raoul Dufy, design no.51285, body colour and pencil on white paper, with inscription on verso--153 x 108cm., circa 1920 #3 "Grand Feuillages"ca. 1920 Linen furnishing fabric by Raoul Dufy for Bianchini-Férier woodblock printed V&A #4 The Arum, a canvas of Tournon, by Raoul Dufy. In 1920, La Gazette du Bon Ton, published reproductions of paintings of Tournon by Dufy. Designs included lampas (luxury fabric with a background weft), brocades and brocatelles (stiff decorating fabric with patterns in high relief) #5 Wood block printed textile linen textile design for Bianchini-Férier ca. 1920 red on white V&A #6 "La Perse " #7 Raoul Dufy , textile design Gouache on paper for Bianchini-Ferier 27 x 23 cm. LeClerc ~~~oOo~~~ French painter, printmaker and decorative artist.Raoul Dufy 1877-1953. From the age of 14 he was employed as a book-keeper, but at the same time he developed his innate gift for drawing at evening classes at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Le Havre,given by the Neo-classical painter Charles Lhuillier (?1824-98). He discovered the work of Eugène Boudin, Poussin and Delacroix, In 1900, with a grant from the school he joined his friend Othon Friesz in Paris and enrolled at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in the studio of Léon Bonnat in Paris . Shortly before Paul Poiret employed him, he produced woodcuts to illustrate the poet Apollinaire’s volume Le Bestiaire ou Cortège d’Orphée. His graphic large-scale floral motifs and designs of this print are close in mood to textiles created by designers of the Wiener Werkstätte and the Deutsche Werkstätten in Munich. Dufy had visited Munich in 1909. He began to design textiles for Paul Poiret in 1911 .Which proved to be a long and fruitful relationship as Paul Poiret helped to launch his career as a textile designer. From 1912 until 1930 he designed woven and printed textiles for the silk manufacturers Bianchini-Férier. He created a range of lively fabrics in bright colours, many of which were bought by leading couturiers such as Lanvin, Patou and of course Poiret. Love D'Artagnan xxx
