Hi all!

I invite you to discover (or remind) Gruau. A graphic deisgner artist (truly an artist) of the beginning of the 20th century. He may remind you the work of Mucha (who is more decorative) . I my opinion, these artist are still influencing us today and have done an innovating work that is still interesting and valuable.

That's some nice stuff. I was a Patrick Nagel and Dennis Mukai fan, and they are like a part of that graphic style--which leads back to Alphonse Mucha (who I adore). Nagel's stuff is more Japanese woodblock print inspired, and I'm not sure what inspired Mukai to do his thing--maybe fashion illustrations?
