Завтра исполнится 135 лет со дня рождения выдающегося французского пре-модерниста Мишеля Дюфе, состоявшегося как художник, архитектор, сценограф, декоратор, промышленный дизайнер и даже куратор дома-музея Эмиля Антуана Бурделя, на дочери которого Дюфе был женат.

Автор множества интерьеров, в том числе нескольких кают лайнера «Нормандия», и предметов мебели, еще не лишенных декора, но явно демонстрирующих движение в сторону функционализма и массового производства, Дюфе в 1929 г. представил ультрасовременную «машину для письма», стол, целиком изготовленный из цинка по заказу Астурийской металлургической компании, которая желала показать общественности возможности применения цинка. А в следующем году из ребра этого письменного стола Дюфе создал аналогичную «машину для дамского туалета», смягчив строгость цинка добавлением кожи и карельской березы.

Tomorrow marks 135 years since the birth of Michel Dufet, a very influential but lesser-known French pre-modernist who made a name for himself as an artist, architect, stage designer, decorator, product designer, and, being married to Rhodia Bourdelle, director of the Bourdelle Museum.

In 1929, Dufet was already a renowned designer of interiors (including for the SS Normandie) and furnishings that exemplified the aesthetics of Art Deco and, yet, showcased Dufet’s affinity for stark functionality and mass-production, when he came up with a “machine for writing on”, a writing desk made entirely of polished zinc, in response to a commission from Asturian Mining Company that wished to promote the potential of zinc. The following year saw Dufet create, after the likeness of the writing desk, a futuristic “machine for dressing at”, a vanity table made of zinc whose sternness was softened by the addition of Karelian birch and parchment.

Soloviev also promoted the channel in a post he shared on his own Telegram, which has 580,000 followers. The post recommended his viewers subscribe to "War on Fakes" in a time of fake news. To that end, when files are actively downloading, a new icon now appears in the Search bar that users can tap to view and manage downloads, pause and resume all downloads or just individual items, and select one to increase its priority or view it in a chat. "For Telegram, accountability has always been a problem, which is why it was so popular even before the full-scale war with far-right extremists and terrorists from all over the world," she told AFP from her safe house outside the Ukrainian capital. And while money initially moved into stocks in the morning, capital moved out of safe-haven assets. The price of the 10-year Treasury note fell Friday, sending its yield up to 2% from a March closing low of 1.73%.
