Goude stuff

The recent speedy festive trip to France involved a lot of countryside, plus peace and quiet. I had mentally pencilled-in a visit to the museum, Les Arts Decoratifs, in case we made it up to Paris. It is currently hosting the Goudemania exhibition, until 18 March 2012, and looks well worth a visit. Jean-Paul Goude is master of visual-brilliance and the brains behind some memorable advertising, for some of the world's biggest brands. A French graphic designer, photographer, illustrator and advertising film director, he was once also married to Grace Jones, with whom he collaborated on many projects. The exhibition is the first ever retrospective exhibition of the artist's work. Take a look at the attached overview of his creations below. Genius.
