The stories of artists and Isabelle Tuchband and Verena Matzen, two big names in contemporary art, were assembled in the book “Atelier Cité – Paixões Declaradas” ("Atelier Cité – Declared Passions"). The publication reveals details of the meeting between Verena and Isabelle, over twenty years ago at the French Embassy, their life in Paris, and the creation of the Atelier Cité, at a house in Jardins, Sao Paulo, where they promote and organize meetings among several artists and friends. Despite having very different personalities, the book shows us what the two have in common: the use of colors and lots of inspiration.
