George Barbier The birth of Art Déco

The exhibition presents over two
hundred works including paintings, drawings, articles, pochoir,
photographs, books, manuscripts and films. It begins with his
early works, then continuing with a section dedicated to theatre and
cinema with his drawings for costumes and theatre design. It then goes
on with a vast, spectacular section dedicated to fashion illustration –
including, amongst other things, pochoir, watercolours and drawings -
followed by the priceless, limited editions of the highly refined
albums, almanacs and books illustrated by Barbier. Finally, the subject
of his advertising production is of considerable interest.
