Bio

Mario Prassinos

(Constantinople: 30 July 1916 - Avignon: 23 October 1985)

Greek-born French non-figurative painter of the New School of Paris. In 1942, he became friends with Raymond Queneau and collaborated with the NRF publishing house, for which he created book models and NRF cartonnages, sometimes known as cartonnages Prassinos or "reliés Bonet-Prassinos".
