[HERBIN] CLAISSE, Geneviève. Herbin. - Lot 59

[HERBIN] CLAISSE, Geneviève. Herbin. Published in Paris by Les Éditions du Grand-Pont and La Bibliothèque des Arts in 1993. In quarto / In-4 format. Publisher's color illustrated boards. 270 pages, with 250 illustrations, 200 in color. Minimal black marks on second cover. A reference work on Herbin's work, the fruit of 10 years of research by Geneviève Claisse, who shares her knowledge of the biography, technical approach and ethics of an artist who occupies an eminent place in the plastic revolution of the 20th century. Co-founder of cubism with Braque and Picasso, pioneer of synthetic cubism, Auguste Herbin (1882-1960) will go down in art history as the inventor and French master of geometric abstraction. The publication of this catalog raisonné, with a preface by Serge Lemoine, was a major event in the posthumous recognition of his work. A very fine copy.
