About the Item
Alfred Janniot, Propos Mythologiques et Modernes (Alfred Janniot, Mythology and Modern Discourse), French-English Book by Michel Giraud, 2006.
Through foundational essays supported by extensive data, this monographic softcover catalog of an exhibition displayed at Galerie Michel Giraud in 2006 retraces the artist's career. This work about Alfred Janniot, one of the greatest sculptors of the Art Deco period, is, for collectors and museums, "The" reference. A dialogue between drawings and sculptures will highlight the journey of this creative force that inspired all of Alfred Janniot's work.
Because of his inventiveness, Janniot, a classically trained artist, gives Greco-Roman mythology a contemporary appearance.
This master among masters contributed, through his talent, to the worldwide reputation of French monumental sculpture today.
The book describes the career of this sculptor (1889-1969), a friend of Bernard, Bourdelle, and Pompon, the creator of the fresco in the Musée des Colonies, the bas-reliefs in the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, and those in the Rockefeller Center in New York, through fundamental texts, works, and drawings.
This is a beautiful coffee table art book.
