Eileen Gray was one of the most emblematic figures of the art deco and modernist movements, having developed a new and intimate form of architecture over her 50-year career. Through her projects, and with great independence with regard to her contemporaries and critics, she anticipated the eternal movement of sensitivities, optimising the relation between space and furniture, defying conventions and uses, and advocating a return to emotion. This monograph is published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Centre Pompidou. The book features and illustrates many of Gray's designs and interiors, with essays by Cloé Pitiot, Renaud Barrés, and Tim Benton.

Dans ses projets, elle devance, avec indépendance au regard de ses contemporains et de la critique, le mouvement éternel des sensibilités, optimisant le rapport de l?espace au mobilier, défiant les codes et les usages, prônant un retour aux émotions. De ses aménagements intérieurs en laque pour Madame Mathieu Lévy à la Villa E 1027, chef d?œuvre de la modernité conçu à quatre mains avec Jean Badovici, en passant par Tempe a Pailla, sa maison, un ± lieu à soi ?, elle joue d?une liberté créatrice sans précédent, réinventant à chaque étape de conception un nouvel art de vivre, célébrant par la combinaison de multiples modes d?expression les relations secrètes entre l?homme et son environnement. Irlandaise née en 1878, Eileen Gray fut une des figures les plus emblématiques de l?Art Déco et de la Modernité.
