Published for Antoine+Manuel exhibition at Musée des arts décoratifs of Paris in 2009 24 x 17 cm, 240 pages Offset print on Munken pure 150g/m2, cover with spotted gloss varnish and embossing on Munken pure 300 g/m2 Antoine+Manuel Compilation is the sum of more than 10 years of creation. With 220 full-page visuals, we gave a special place to the image: typography, pictures, objects, installations and furniture, as well as drawings, preliminary studies, not accomplished projects, inspirations. We searched throught our drawers, dived into our hard drives to find pictures sometimes very recent, others from our beginning. We wished to share our private world and our process of creation. A big part of the images were made and taken especially for the book, in particularly the invitation for the Christian Lacroix shows, rare and ephemeral. We also present for the first time typography studies, pieces designed for the exhibition at the Musée des Arts décoratifs and drawing from our sketchbooks. Christian Lacroix, Emmanuelle Huynh, Daniel Larrieu, Jean-Marc Grangier give their point of view on our work. Amélie Gastaut, curator of the musée des Arts décoratifs, give her interpretation on our inspirations and the position of graphic designer compared to the artist. Emmanuel Berard, Art collector and critic, refers with humour the ostracism that touch our debut. It is so far the most complete book on our work and the only one available for sale. Texts: Emmanuel Bérard, Amélie Gastaut, Emmanuelle Huynh, Christian Lacroix, Daniel Larrieu…
