GUILLAUME ORIX - Lot 329
GUILLAUME ORIX
In front of a tapestry in Vienna, 1956. Photo by Gilles Ehrmann, silver print on vintage card stock, stamped by the photographer and annotated on the back. 24.5 x 15.3 cm.
Note: This photograph, taken by Gilles Ehrmann in 1956, shows Guillaume Orix in front of a tapestry in Vienna. A painter and tapestry designer, Orix belongs to the generation of artists who contributed to the revival of textile art in the mid-20th century, a period marked by a renewed interest in tapestry as an autonomous form of artistic expression. Gilles Ehrmann, a photographer renowned for his portraits of artists and his coverage of the creative arts scene, sensitively documented the worlds of many painters and sculptors of his time. This image reflects the dialogue between painting and tapestry—which was particularly vibrant in the postwar years—and serves as a valuable record of the work of an artist now associated with the revival of the decorative and monumental arts.
