Édouard Cazaux : Céramiste-Sculpteur Art Déco

In the midst of the unprecedented aesthetic, political and social upheavals of the inter-war years, Édouard Cazaux (1889-1974) carved his own path based on his profession as a sculptor and ceramist. In this way, the artist accepted to stand on the fringes of the avant-garde in the name of tradition, and to preserve a craftsman's know-how in a post-war world that was embracing the need for industrial production.

This monograph devoted to Cazaux traces the sculptor-ceramist's career from his training to his artistic blossoming. Numerous reproductions of his sculptures, ceramics and drawings help to illustrate his position within the Art Deco movement.
