One hundred years after the birth of René Gruau (1909-2004) in Rimini, the artist who became one of the protagonists of the European fashion scene, we have prepared this collection of studies and essays which analyse his relationship with the history of illustration and advertising and the world of fashion. Gruau,who lived to see almost the entire 20th century, was a witness to his time, leaving behind hundreds of drawings, plates, illustrations which — combined together — let us perceive at least in part what was his discourse with fashion and his time.The world illustrated by Gruau was peopled by femmes fatales and young and handsome men. It was a world in as in fashion, where vision goes hand in hand with concreteness, in an on-going exchange and dialogue. The essays written by Elisa Tosi Brandi. Alessandra Vaeeari, Adelheid Rasche. Rejane Bargiel, Gianluca Lo Vetro, Bonizza Giordani Aragno, Francesca Iaeonisi, Marco Urizzi and Joelle Chariau analyse some aspects of the artist`s life and work in depth: from his family to his beginnings, his life lived in the fashion capitals Paris, Milan and Rome;to his production and his unmistakable lines and penstrokes through which the `made in Italy` became known in the world.
