This monograph is devoted to Geneviève Asse (1923-2021), an artist known for her particular use of blue in her monochromes.
Geneviève Asse entered the Decorative Arts in 1940, worked in the Montparnasse studios and exhibited at the Salon des moins de trente ans and the Salon d'automne. She joined the FFI and became an ambulance driver for the evacuation of deportees from the Terezin camp.
After the war, she returned to Paris and designed for the Bianchini-Ferrier, Flachard and Paquin fabric houses. She met Samuel Beckett, André Lanskoy, Serge Poliakoff, Serge Charchoune, Nicolas de Staël, Bram and Geer van Velde. Her first solo exhibition took place in 1954 at the Michel Warren Gallery in Paris.
In the course of her career, she illustrated many writers (Beckett, Frénaud, André du Bouchet, Ponge, etc.) and developed, in parallel with her painting and her famous "Bleu Asse", an important graphic work, always seeking above all light and space.
