This book unveils a lesser-known facet of Jean-Pierre Sudre (1921–1997): the photographs he made during France's Trente Glorieuses for major industrial clients. Images of futuristic machines and of workers at their tasks form a distinctive visual language. A carefully documented essay explores the fertile dialogue between art and industry, restoring the coherence and breadth of this major twentieth-century photographer's career.
