	ART OF THE 70'S: Delauney
		Sonia Delaunay’s committment to developing intense color abstract compositions did not change from the time she and Robert Delaunay were leaders of the Orphism movement in Paris.
		Delaunay's dresses were made from geometric scraps of various fabrics, combining taffeta and tulle, flannel and silk, in bright, contrasting colors, from violet and green to scarlet and blue.
		Delaunay saw her work as `noble', implicated as it was with the intimate rhythms of daily life, the fabric of the home.

		Delaunay was fascinated by how the interaction of colors produces sensations of depth and movement, without reference to the natural world.
		In Simultaneous Contrasts that movement is the rhythm of the cosmos, for the painting's circular frame is a sign for the universe, and its flux of reds and oranges, greens and blues, is attuned to the sun and the moon, the rotation of day and night.
		The poet Guillaume Apollinaire christened Delaunay's style "Orphism," after Orpheus, the musician of Greek legend whose eloquence on the lyre is a mythic archetype for the power of art.

		His Homage to Bleriot, the pioneer of flying is a composite work in which colourful images of aeroplanes and the Eiffel Tower together with disks and haloes of color speak of progress and adventure.
		Delaunay was attempting to reach a wider public and to this end combined avant-garde methods with others derived from religious and folk art.
		The futurists, however, were stimulated by his dynamic version of cubism, and in Germany his paintings were admired for their lyrical, expressive character: his show in the Sturm Gallery in Berlin was followed, later the same year, by a large Robert and Sonia Delaunay section in its First German Autumn Salon.

		A representative selection of works by both artists illustrates their transition from objectivity to abstraction (1912/13) and their later ventures into applied artistic spheres, whereby the creative interplay between Robert and Sonia Delaunay, probably the most famous artistic couple of the 20th century, plays a central role.
		Sonia Delaunay’s involvement in the applied arts can be seen in the presentation of objects such as jewellery boxes, ties and a patchwork quilt.
		The spirit of the age is brought to life by additional documentary material from the Centre Pompidou archives, which not only provides an insight into the biography of the artistic couple but also highlights the Delaunays’ links to Germany, th poet friends, the world of fashion and the Paris Exposition of 1937.
