A Valentine’s Day Soirée
Posted: February 3, 2011

Wondering where to take your loved-one on Valentine’s Day? Why not spend the evening with José-Luis Bocquet and Catherine Muller - author and illustrator of the Angoulême award-winning Kiki de Montparnasse - at their book launch soirée at Hardy’s Brasserie in Marylebone. Each diner will be served a complimentary cherry bellini and be given a signed copy of Kiki as Valentine’s gift from publisher SelfMadeHero. Full details here….
Kiki de Montparnasse is a graphic biography that celebrates the life of an exceptional artist, model, painter and bohemian fixture of 1920s Paris. Kiki escaped poverty to become one of the most charismatic figures of the avant-garde years between the wars. Partner to Man Ray, she would be immortalised by Kisling, Foujita, Per Krohg, Calder, Utrillo and Léger. The muse of a generation, she was one of the first emancipated women of the 20th century, making her mark with her freedom of style, word and thought learned from the school of life.
