Born in 1881 in Lower Normandy, French artist Josef Fernand Henri Léger was a painter, sculptor and also a filmmaker. He initially built his reputation as a Cubist, blending it with his own unique style, which became known as ‘tubism’. In 1911, the Salon des Indépendants showcased his work alongside that of Delaunay, Metzinger and Gleizes as a wider introduction to the Cubist movement. However, over time, his style evolved into more figurative and populist styles.
