To mark the centenary of the birth of Simon Hantaï (1922-2008), the Fondation Louis Vuitton is organizing a major retrospective exhibition of the artist's work (from May 18 to August 29, 2022). Originally from Hungary, Hantaï moved to Paris in 1948, the city where he produced his entire body of work, which was exceptionally prolific and original, leading him to represent France at the 40th Venice Biennale in 1982.

With two interviews with Zsuzsa Hantaï and Daniel Burren, conducted by Anne Baldassari, as an introduction, this book brings together essays by Jean-Luc Nancy, Georges Didi-Huberman, Jean Louis Schefer as well as a chronology of the life of Simon Hantaï by Anne Baldassari.
More than 130 of the artist's works are reproduced there, covering the major successive periods from the Sign Paintings, Monochromes, Mariales, Catamurons, Panses, Meuns, Studies, Whites, Tabulas, Polychrome Paintings, Serigraphs and Laissees to conclude with the "last workshop".
