Book launch: Anni Albers. Abstractions Concrètes by Ida Soulard (Les presses du réel, 2024), followed by a conversation between the author and Elisabeth Lebovici, art historian and critic.

This evening will be an opportunity to present this first major French-language monograph devoted to Anni Albers’s textile work (1899–1994): a comprehensive study of the practice and thought of a pivotal figure bridging two continents and two modernities,

situated within the broader history of art, design, and textile production of European and American feminist avant-gardes.

Copies of the book will be available.

€30. Cash only.
