Original lithographic poster with art by André Lhote for exhibition at Musée National d’Art Moderne in Paris 1958.
André Lhote was a French painter, sculptor, teacher, and art theorist known for his significant contributions to the development of Cubism and his role as an influential art educator. Throughout his career, André Lhote's style evolved, and he developed a unique interpretation of Cubism that combined elements of structure and geometry with a focus on representational subjects. He believed in the potential of Cubism to rejuvenate traditional artistic forms, and he aimed to maintain a balance between abstraction and recognizable forms in his works. Lhote also played a significant role as a teacher and art theorist. He opened his own art school in Paris in 1911, where he taught principles of Cubism, emphasizing the importance of structure, volume, and geometric forms.
The poster is framed with a hand painted gray frame with elegant leaf detailing, with light gray passepartout, and placed on a burned red background.
