Designers and Creators of the '80s - '90s by Patrick Favardin

In line with the works on decorators of the 1940s, '50s '60s, and '70s, this book plunges us into the world of '80s and '90s. A rich introduction gives a synoptic vision, and 38 monographs makes an exceptionally creative period intelligible. Text in English and French.

Doctor of art history, Patrick Favardin (1951-2016) devoted himself for many years to the organisation of exhibitions for the City of Paris. He published numerous articles and books on what became his favourite subject, Le Style 50, a moment in French art, published by Éditions Sous le Vent/Vilo, in 1987, and Les Années 50 at Éditions du Chêne, in 1999. He is also the author of Decorators of the '50s, in 2002, and Decorators from the '60s and '70s, in 2015, both published by Éditions Norma. He also directed for 20 years the gallery of art À Rebours, dedicated to French decorators and ceramists of the '50s and '60s.

Journalist, Guy Bloch-Champfort has always been interested in decorative arts and contemporary creation. He has published in 2002 Raphaël, decorator at Éditions de l’Amateur, a successful monograph which led to the rediscovery of this important creator. Collaborator of many French and international magazines for the visual arts, decorative art, architecture and design, from the beginning of the 20th century to the present day, he is quite naturally interested in decoration of the '80s and '90s, which made coexist, like no other period, contemporary creations and influence past centuries.
