Description
Georges MATHIEU (1912–2012) and Jacques BERGIER: *Transformateurs B.C.: A Short, Unconventional History of Electricity*, text by Jacques Bergier and illustrations by Georges Mathieu. Printed by Imprimerie des Tournelles, Paris, 1966. Copy no. 1508/5000. Dimensions: 29.5 x 21 cm. (Stains and scuff marks on the cover.) [A book that bears witness to a bold convergence of art, industry and innovation. In 1966, Guy Biraud, then CEO of Transformateurs BC, commissioned Georges Mathieu to design an extraordinary technical catalogue, blending artistic creation with industrial expertise. This innovative approach continued a few years later when the artist helped design the company’s new factory, from its architecture to its gardens – a veritable work of art covering 18,000 m², which was praised at the time by the French and international press.]
