Au cœur de la couleur

Au cœur de la couleur – A French painter and colorist, André Lemonnier’s career was marked by research into color classification and studies of architectural and industrial polychromy. Aimed at integrating buildings into the landscape, these projects were commissioned by architects, industrialists and public establishments in new towns.

Halfway between a prospective study of color and a monograph, this book presents paintings, collages, instruments and polychromes created by the artist from 1968 to 2019. Offering a resolutely modern vision of color, he explores the links between art, design, industrial techniques and urban planning.
