Publisher's Synopsis
This volume is a study of the life and work of Aurelie Nemours including the paintings, pastels, and collages that she produced over half a century. In 1952 she developed her own language consisting of simple geometric forms, some patches of color, and orthogonal lines that give her compositions their regular and well-ordered structure. Her oeuvre consists of sequences, periods, and series, which sometimes extended over several years, and followed on from one another or overlapped.
