"The Talent Runs in the Family". The Painter Hélène de Beauvoir
As creative and productive as her famous sister Simone was, the painter Hélène de Beauvoir (1910-2001) created a multifaceted oeuvre. In her works on paper and paintings she combines abstraction and poetic figuration, striking colorfulness and expressive black and white. This generously illustrated publication tells the story of her fascinating life as an artist of the modern period.
