A figure of boundless curiosity and creative brio, French painter, sculptor, and filmmaker Fernand Léger blithely moved between abstraction and figuration, sidestepping the debates that stirred the 20th-century avant-garde. Identified as a Cubist early in his career—one critic derided him as a “Tubist” because of his predilection for sleek tubular forms— he absorbed elements from a wide variety of modern movements, including Fauvism, Surrealism, Futurism, and even Social Realism. His vibrant oeuvre receives star treatment in a new limited-edition hand-bound volume, Fernand Léger (Assouline, $695).
