WRITTEN IN FRENCH
From 1905 to 1925, Paris, the "world city", was at the heart of innovation and the home of an unparalleled cultural influence. "The Paris of Modernity" invites you to immerse yourself in this cosmopolitan and abundant capital, where artists from all over the world and from all walks of life meet, from Pablo Picasso to Sonia Delaunay, from Marie Vassilieff to Paul Poiret, from Fernand Léger to Josephine Baker.
Combining fashion, cinema, photography, painting, sculpture, drawing, but also dance, music, literature, design, decorative arts, architecture and industry, this book celebrates the fabulous creative effervescence of these years, without dismissing the painful period of the Great War.
The avant-garde collided, the ruptures were lightning, social changes accelerated, scandals raged.
In Paris, everything goes "faster, higher, stronger"!
