Sonia Delaunay, la Simultanée

Sonia Delaunay was an abstract artist, a fashion designer, a graphic artist and a successful entrepreneur. She never ceased to abolish the boundaries between visual and decorative art, while remaining faithful to the principles of "simultanism", a conception of abstraction centered on the interaction of colors. Held jointly at Galerie Roger-Viollet and Galerie Zlotowski, the exhibition features works on paper and paintings, as well as photos from the Roger-Viollet collection, evoking Sonia Delaunay's world through the artists she encountered.

The Roger-Viollet Gallery welcomes you from Tuesday to Saturday
from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. Free admission.

6 rue de Seine 75006 Paris
