Fernand Leger (1881-1955) is the only modern artist to choose modernity itself as his subject. From his early series Contrastes de formes (1913-14), the first fully abstract works to emerge from Cubism, through his last realistic paintings of construction workers from the early 1950s, Leger's lifelong subject was the pulse and dynamism of contemporary life. This book accompanies a major retrospective exhibition that opens at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, on February 15, 1998 -- the first comprehensive, in-depth survey of Leger's work in the United States since the artist's death. Of all the major painters of his generation, Leger was the most adroit negotiator in the century's long quarrel between abstraction and representation. Here, superb reproductions of both paintings and drawings span all aspects of his work. The texts include a notable account of Leger's experiences in the United States during his several visits and wartime residency and a look at the conceptual links between his art and American culture.

Leger

Fernand Leger; Jose Maria Faerna

One of the major painters of this century, Fernand Léger was early associated with Cubism. Shaped more by his personal experiences than any rigid aesthetic, Léger believed in the positive social value of art and devoted much energy to creating a public art accessible to all. This fully illustrated survey describes the course of Léger's artistic development and defines his contribution to the theory and practice of painting.
