This volume is a study of the life and work of the French abstract painter Aurélie Nemours (1910-2005), whose paintings rank among the masterpieces of geometric abstract art alongside those by Ad Reinhardt, John McLaughlin, and Agnes Martin.
In 1952 Aurélie Nemours developed her own language consisting of simple geometric forms, some patches of colour, and orthogonal lines that give her compositions their regular and well-ordered structure. Her oeuvre consists of sequences, periods, and series, which sometimes extended over several years, and followed on from one another or overlapped.
This catalogue raisonné of the artist's oeuvre includes all the paintings, pastels, and collages that Aurélie Nemours produced over half a century.
