Over her long career she created an extraordinarily diverse output encompassing painting, collage, sculpture, constructions, illustration, textiles, photography, poetry, prose, critical writing and even a film script. As a mark of her considerable accomplishments, she was celebrated with a show at Tate in the year before her death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSetting out to bring this bold and accomplished artist to new audiences, this important publication focuses primarily on Vézelay's early years in Paris from the 1920s through to 1939, during which time her work moved from figuration to abstraction, for which she would become best known. The book also brings to light, for the first time in detail, her little-known period as a successful designer of textiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUncompromising and clear-sighted in her artistic ambitions, Vézelay became a formidable presence in the international avant-garde scene in Paris and continued to push artistic boundaries throughout her long career. This publication, which includes original research and previously unpublished works, extends our understanding, and appreciation of, this important British artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSimon Grant\u003c\/b\u003e is a curator, writer and co-editor of \u003ci\u003ePicpus \u003c\/i\u003emagazine. \u003cb\u003eGemma Brace\u003c\/b\u003e is a curator and writer, and head of exhibitions at Arnolfini, Bristol. \u003cb\u003eHelen Janecek\u003c\/b\u003e is an art historian and former health service administrator. \u003cb\u003eSarah Wilson\u003c\/b\u003e is an art historian and curator, and Professor of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Courtauld Institute. \u003cb\u003eNina Gioria\u003c\/b\u003e is a masters student at the École du Louvre in Paris, and wrote her research paper on Paule Vézelay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 104\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 10.47 x 8.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 01, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51783595295008,"sku":"9781848227040","price":75.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/08c0635f4cfcd6be140874927fe58bb4.webp?v=1780590490","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/paule-vezelay-living-lines-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
