Rustic Cubism: Anne Dangar and the Art Colony at Moly-Sabata

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the art colony of Moly-Sabata, the narrative explores the innovative fusion of Cubism and traditional agrarian practices led by Albert Gleizes. Central to this movement is ceramicist Anne Dangar, whose dedication to the colony's ideals and her struggles during World War II are vividly portrayed. Her unique rustic Cubism, blending local pottery techniques with modern design, garnered recognition in esteemed museums. Richly illustrated, the book offers insights into French modernism and the cultural dynamics of early 20th-century art through Dangar's compelling story.
