New book: Color Moves: Art & Fashion by Sonia Delaunay. Sonia Delaunay was a Jewish-French artist who, with
her husband Robert
Delaunay and others, cofounded the Orphism art movement, noted for
its use of strong colors and geometric shapes. Her work extends to painting,
textile design and stage set design. She was the first living female artist to
have a retrospective exhibition at the Louvre in 1964, and in
1975 was named an officer of the French Legion
of Honor. Her work in modern design included the concepts of geometric
abstraction, the integration of furniture, fabrics, wall coverings,
and clothing.
