Sonia Delaunay, Madame Sonia Delaunay, Musee D'Art Moderne, Paris, 2014

Following my quest to explore other 'folded' works I recently came across this fun children's book featuring the work of the French artist Sonia Delaunay (1885-1979). As can be seen its a pop-up book that brings to life this French Orphist's geometric works in a series of startling two page spreads.

Check out this very early accordion book that Delaunay created with Blaise Cendrars titled 'La Prose du Transsiberian et de la Petite Jehanne de France' from 1913 on this blog:  accordion publications: La Prose du Transsiberian et de la Petite Jehanne de France, poem by Blaise Cendrars & artwork by Sonia Delaunay, facsimile of 1913 version, 2008, Yale University Press, New Haven
