Bøker av Tom Sandqvist

Sonia Delaunay is one of the most important artists of European Modernism and known for transcending the boundaries between fine and applied art. Tom Sandqvist focuses on the impact of Delaunay's Jewish roots on her oeuvre, with a special attention on her early contributions to Simultanism and Orphism within the interwar Parisian Avant-Garde.

This survey asks a seemingly simple question: Is there an affinity between the emergence of modern art and various Avant-Garde movements such as Russian Suprematism and Polish or Hungarian Constructivism around about the turn of the last century and the process of Jewish assimilation in the Habsburg empire and Russian tsardom respectively?
