This catalog was published on the occasion of the exhibition "Tous Léger!: with Niki de Saint Phalle, Yves Klein, Martial Raysse, Keith Haring..." in Paris at the Musée du Luxembourg from March 19 to July 20, 2025.
In partnership with the Fernand Léger National Museum (Biot), MAMAC and the City of Nice.
Fascinated by progress, speed, lights, and advertising slogans punctuating urban space, Fernand Léger (1881-1955) participated in the modernist revolution by framing reality in its most prosaic forms. Through this exhibition and the accompanying catalog, an aesthetic, thematic, and formal dialogue emerges between his works and those of artists affiliated with New Realism. A fervent admirer of Léger's work, with whom he shared a rejection of
Socialist realism, the art critic Pierre Restany would have named this movement in homage to the painter, who used this formula several times in his theoretical writings.
