Museum of Art - Raoul Dufy: A Celebration of Beauty
February 7 - July 5, 2009
The
Donna and Jim Barksdale Galleries for Changing Exhibitions Raoul
Dufy's expressive style of painting has captivated people around
the world since the early twentieth century. He translated his
joie de vivre into lively, colorful paintings that covered themes
like the sea, horse races, flowers, and music, among others. Yet
his textile designs were among his greatest work and often reflect
the passions expressed in his paintings. Dufy collaborated for
decades with couturier Paul Poiret, and his more than 5,000 textile
designs were produced by leading French silk manufacturer Bianchini-Ferrier.
Today led by Cédric Brochier, the fabric maker still uses
Dufy designs. Raoul Dufy: A Celebration of Beauty presents artwork
by the artist from across seven decades of his career and includes
more than 200 drawings, paintings,
and textile designs, as well as dresses created from Dufy fabric
by designers such as Mongi Guibane and Christian Lacroix.
