| book description |

GÃ©rald Genta is a substantial monograph that explores, for the first time, a lesser-known artistic side to the internationally acclaimed Swiss watchmaker. Aptly named the â€˜Picasso of Timepiecesâ€™, Genta was also a passionate painter, a facet of his life often overshadowed by his watchmaking fame. This beautifully crafted book, created in collaboration with his estate, showcases the breadth of Gentaâ€™s artistic talents, revealing his true passion and creativity.Â As his wife Evelyne fondly recalls, painting was Gentaâ€™s â€˜oxygenâ€™, a constant companion throughout his travels and a true reflection of his inner drive. This collection provides a chronological journey through his works, illustrating the effortless unfolding of the figurative compositions into the abstract style of his painterly work. His work reflects a rich tapestry of art historical influences, including the work of Paul CÃ©zanne, Marc Chagall, Wassily Kandinsky, Marie Laurencin, Joan MirÃ³ and Amedeo Modigliani, providing a fresh perspective on his creative output.Â Perfect for art enthusiasts and collectors, this monograph offers a unique opportunity to delve into the lesser-known artistic legacy of GÃ©rald Genta, a master who left an indelible mark on both the watchmaking and art worlds.Â
