Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In Paris between 1909 and 1948, the salons in the Grand Palais near the Champs-Elysees were installed with extraordinary decorative interiors to accommodate automobile and other trade fairs. The splendor of these temporary sets was a direct expression of a gloriously progressive Paris married with the work of the French architect Andr» Granet (1881-1974). In 1948, Granetís work was documented in a large-format book, which has long been out of print and is now available again here as a stunning facsimile reprint. Decors Ephemeres contains photographs of Granetís installations and lighting designs, as well as his illuminations for the Eiffel tower and the banks of the Seine. It is completed by outlines and sketches of his daring designs.
